For n > 1 define the random variables Xn = Zn + Zn-1. -: ) (a) Determine cov(Xn, Xn+k) for all n >1 and k > 0. [3 marks] (b) Let U and V be two random variables with mean 0 and non-zero variance. Define the function f:R [0,00) such that f(c) = E((U - cV)). Show that f is minimised at c= 0 if and only if U and V are uncorrelated. [2 marks] .
