If X and Y are independent exponential random
variables, each having parameter λ = 6, find the joint
density function of U = X + Y and
V = e 2X.
The required joint density function is of the form
fU,V (u, v)
=
{

Let X, Y be independent exponential random variables with mean
one. Show that X/(X + Y ) is uniformly distributed on [0, 1].
(Please solve it with clear explanations so that I can learn it.
I will give thumbs up.)
Let X and Y be independent Exponential random variables with
common mean 1.
Their joint pdf is f(x,y) = exp (-x-y) for x > 0 and y > 0
, f(x, y ) = 0 otherwise. (See "Independence" on page 349)
Let U = min(X, Y) and V = max (X, Y).
The joint pdf of U and V is f(u, v) = 2 exp (-u-v) for 0 < u
< v < infinity, f(u, v ) = 0 otherwise....

2. Porcelain figurines are sold for $10 if flawless,
and for $3 if there are minor cosmetic flaws. Of the figurines made
by a certain company, 75% are flawless and 25% have minor cosmetic
flaws. In a sample of 100 figurines that are...
