Question

A certain process for producing an industrial chemical yields a product containing two predominant types of impurities. For a certain volume of sample from this process, let X₁ denote the proportion of impurities in the sample and let X₂ denote the proportion of type I impurity among all impurities found. Suppose the joint distribution of X1 and X2, after investigation of many such samples, can be adequately modeled by the following function: (see picture)

a. Calculate the probability that X1 is less than 0.5 and that X2 is between 0.4 and 0.7.

b. Show that these random variables are independent.
