(b) Find the density function of Z = XY.
The number of people who enter a drugstore in a given hour is a Poisson random variable with parameter λ = 10. Compute the conditional probability that at most 3 men entered the drugstore, given that 10 women entered in that hour. What assumptions have you made?
If X and Y are independent random variables both uniformly distributed over , find the joint density function of .
If X1 and X2 are independent exponential random variables, each having parameter , find the joint density function of and .
A bin of 5 transistors is known to contain 2 that are defective. The transistors are to be tested, one at a time, until the defective ones are identified. Denote by N1 the number of tests made until the first defective is identified and by N2 the number of additional tests until the second defective is identified. Find the joint probability mass function of N1 and N2.
