Question 7.39

7.36 Consider again Example 7.1. What is the expected value of the number
of consolation prizes won, given that no main prize has been won?
7.37 Consider again Example 7.3. What is the expected value of the lifetime
of the second circuit, given that the first circuit has failed after s time
units?
7.38 You choose three different numbers at random from the number
1,2,..., 100. Let X be the smallest of these three numbers and Y the
largest. What are the conditional expected values E(X | Y = y) and
E(Y|X=x)?
7.39 You generate three random numbers from (0, 1). Let X be the smallest of
these three numbers and Y the largest. What are the conditional expected
values E(X | Y = y) and E(Y | X = x)?
7.40 Verify that E(X | Y = y) = E(X) for all y if X and Y are independent.
Also, verify that cov(X, Y) = 0 if E(X | Y = y) does not depend on y.
7.41 Let (X, Y) have a bivariate normal density with parameters (41, 42,0
o2.p), where o? = 02. What is E(X | X + Y = v)? Hint: Use the result
of Problem 6.9.
7.42 Let the joint density function f(x, y) of the random variables X and Y be
equal to 1 for -y < x < y₂0 < x < 1 and otherwise. What are t
