Question

The joint continuous distribution of random variables X and Y is given by

f X,Y(x,y) = l2exp[-lx]      for        0 < y < x < ∞  for some parameter l >0.

               = l2exp[-lx] * I[ 0 < y < x < ∞ ]

******PART B. Identify the marginal distributions of X and Y by type and parameter values.****** (Please help with this part).

 

Now assume that l = 3 to do the numeric computations in parts c and d.

  1. Using your findings in part b. you can simply state the means E[X] and E[Y] and variances VAR[X] and VAR[Y]. (to be used below in CORR(X,Y)).
  2. Using part b, Can you state the conditional expectation E[Y | X =x] for all possible values x of X? Using part d if possible or else directly from your joint probability table:   Comptue E[XY] and then the correlation    rX,Y = COV(X,Y)/ [sX*sY].
