The joint density of X and Y is
Find the conditional distribution of Y, given X = x.
The joint density function of X and Y is given by
(a) Find the conditional density of X, given Y = y, and that of Y, given X = x.
(b) Find the density function of Z = XY.
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 binomial random variables with identical parameters n and p, show analytically that the conditional distribution of X given that X + Y = m is the hypergeometric distribution. Also, give a second argument that yields the same result without any computations. Hint: Suppose that 2n coins are flipped. Let X denote the number of heads in the first n flips and Y the number in the second n flips. Argue that given a total of m heads, the number of heads in the first n flips has the same distribution as the number of white balls selected when a sample of size m is chosen from n white and n black balls
If U is uniform on and Z, independent of U, is exponential with rate , show directly (without using the results of Example b) that X and Y defined by
are independent standard normal random variables.
