We know the variance of three variables x1, x2,x3 and the covaraince (x1,x2) and covaraince (x2,x3)

Is there a way to find the covariance between x1 and x3?

Consider three positive integers, x1, x2, x3, which satisfy the inequality below: x1 + x2 + x3 = 17. Let’s assume each element in the sample space (consisting of solution vectors (x1, x2, x3) satisfying the above conditions) is equally likely to occur. For example, we have equal chances to have (x1, x2, x3) = (1, 1, 15) or (x1, x2, x3) = (1, 2, 14). What is the probability the events x1 + x2 ≤ 8 occurs, i.e., P(x1...

•List three variables (X1, X2, X3) you’d include in a Multiple Regression Model in order to better predict an outcome (Y) variable. For example, you might list three variables that could be related to how long a person will live (Y). Or you might list three variables that contribute to a successful restaurant. Your Regression Model should have three variables that will act as “predictors” (X1, X2, X3) of a “criterion” (Y’). Note that the outcome or criterion variable (e.g....
