as soon as possible. Hand write. **Independence Challenge**Consider an "independence challenge," where we have the following setup:1. Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be independent random variables (RVs).2. \(X\) is uniformly distributed in the interval \([-1, 1]\).3. \(Y\) is discrete and has the probability mass function (PMF):\[P_Y(y) =\begin{cases} 1 - p & \text{if } y = -1 \\p & \text{if } y = 1 \\0 & \text{otherwise}\end{cases}\]### Problem Statement:Consider a new random variable \(Z\) defined as \(Z = XY\).Determine the truth or falsehood of the following statements: i) \(Y\) and \(Z\) are independent. ii) \(X\) and \(Z\) are independent.

An "independence challenge", perhaps: Let X and Y be independent RVs, where X is uniform in [−1, 1] and Y is discrete and has PMF: Py(y) = = { 1-p_y=-1 y = 1 otherwise Р 0 Consider new RV, Z = XY. For each of the following statements find if it is true or false: i) Y and Z are independent; and ii) X and Z are independent
