Problem 3. Suppose that X and Y are independent Poisson random variables with param-eters and μ, respectively. Find the distribution of X+Y. Prove that the conditionaldistribution of X, given that X+Y = n, is binomial with parameters n and λ/(X+μ). (Fortwo random variables Z and T, the conditional distribution of Z given T is given byPz|T(z|t) = P(Z = z |T = t),for all t such that P(T=t) > 0.)
