If are independent exponential random variables with respective parameters and , find the distribution of . Also compute .
Consider a sequence of independent Bernoulli trials, each of which is a success with probability p. Let X1 be the number of failures preceding the first success, and let X2 be the number of failures between the first two successes. Find the joint mass function of X1 and X2.
Let X and Y be independent uniform (0, 1) random variables.
(a) Find the joint density of U = X, V = X + Y.
(b) Use the result obtained in part (a) to compute the density function of V
If X and Y are independent standard normal random variables, determine the joint density function of
Then use your result to show that has a Cauchy distribution.
Let X and Y denote the coordinates of a point uniformly chosen in the circle of radius centered at the origin. That is, their joint density is .
Find the joint density function of the polar coordinates and .
