Let X and Y be two independent random variables such that E(X) = E(Y) = u but og and Oy are unequal. We define another random variable Z as the weighted average of the random variables X and Y, as Z = 0X + (1 - 0)Y where 0 is a scalar and 0 = 0 < 1. 1.

Let X and Y be two independent Bernoulli (05) randon variables and define U = X + Y and (a) Find the joint and marginal probability mass functions for U and V. [It is sufficient to con struct a table to describe these mass functions.] (b) Are U and V independent? Why or why not? (c) Find the conditional probability mass functions pUv (u) and pv u(v). [Again, you can construct a table to describe these mass functions.]
There are two independent Bernoulli random variables, U and V , both with probability of success 1/2. Let X=U+V and Y =|U−V|. 1) Calculate the covariance of X and Y 2) Explain whether X and Y are independent or not 3) Identify the random variable expressed as the conditional expectation of Y given X, i.e., E[Y |X].

(15 points) Consider two independent, exponential random variables X,Y ~ exp(1). Let U = X + Y and V = X/(X+Y). (a) (5 points) Calculate the joint pdf of U and V. (b) (5 points) Identify the distribution of U. If it has a "named” distribution, you must state it. Otherwise support and pdf is enough. (c) (5 points) Identify the distribution of V.If it has a "named” distribution, you must state it. Otherwise support and pdf is enough.
