Accordingly, after calculating c, calculate the expected value, variance and standard deviation; The 3rd moment (3 = 0.0005) measures the asymmetry measure (a3) according to the arithmetic mean and the 4th moment ( 4 = 0.004) Find and interpret the kurtosis measure (a4) according to the arithmetic mean. Then, find the covariance (Cov(X,Y)) and the Pearson correlation coefficient (pxy) to determine whether variables X and Y are independent.
