Problem 4. For Ye vectors of dimension n x 1 and B an n x n matrix, consider the model: I-B)Y -p)=¢ such that: (S1) (I — B) is nonsingular (S2) €~ N(0,A), where A is diagonal with positive elements (83) bi; =0 Vi (a) Write the expression of the above model in the form ¥; =... to show that the model specifies that each element of Y depends on the other elements of ¥ according to the elements of B, except that the i" element does not depend on itself. (b) Find E[Y]. (c) Find Var(Y). (d) Show that Var(Y) is positive definite for any B defined as above.

Question a
 Y = μ + (IB)⁻¹€
 
Question b
 E[Y] = μ
 
Question c
Var(Y) = A
 
Question d
 V
ar(Y) is positive definite for any B defined as above.
Explanation:
Question a
· Y = μ + (IB)⁻¹€
· The model stipulates that each component of Y is dependent on the other components of Y in accordance with the components of B, with one exception: the ith component is not dependent on itself. To illustrate this point, let's rewrite the model so that it looks like Y = + (IB)1€. Each component of Y can be represented as a linear...
