Mathematica Asked by R.Y. Zhao on May 26, 2021
I want to compute the mean of this transformed distribution $10^{(25+5x+y)/5}$, where $x$ and $y$ are independent normal random variables.
Here is my code
oneStepDist =
TransformedDistribution[10^(
1/5 (25 + 5 x + y)), {x [Distributed]
NormalDistribution[71273/100000, 11/6250],
y [Distributed] NormalDistribution[-4811/250, 21/500]}];
twoStepDist =
TransformedDistribution[10^t, t [Distributed] #] &@
TransformedDistribution[
1/5 (25 + 5 x + y), {x [Distributed]
NormalDistribution[71273/100000, 11/6250],
y [Distributed] NormalDistribution[-4811/250, 21/500]}];
I found Mean[oneStepDist]
returns $0$ while N@Mean[twoStepDist]
gives correct result $73.1164$. Is this a bug or I’m missing something?
