Q1 Let X and Y be independent exponential random variables with rates X and µ respectively where A> µ. Let
c> 0.
Q1(i.) Using conditioning arguments, show that the probability density function of X +Y is given by
fx+r (t):
de
-At
-He H, t>0.
ut
Q1(ii.) Show that the conditional density of X, given that X +Y = c is
(A – µ)e-(a-w)z
fx|x+y (æ|c) =
0 < x < c.
1-e-(a-µ)c
Q1(ii.) Use part (i) to find E[X|X + Y = c]
Q1(iv.) Using the relationship c =
E[X + Y|X+Y = c] = E[X[X +Y = c] + E[Y\X +Y = c], deduce the
value of E[Y|X +Y = c].
