1. An electronic system has two different types of components in joint operation. Let X1 and X2 denote the Random Length of life in hundreds of hours of the components of Type I and Type II (Type 1 and Type 2), respectively. Suppose that the joint probability density function (pdf) is given by
f(x1, x2) = { (1/8)y1 e^-(x1 + x2)/2, x1 > 0, x2 > 0
0 Otherwise.
a.) Show that X1 and X2 are independent.
b.) Find E(Y1+Y2) and variance Var(Y1+Y2).
c.) Find E(X2 | X1).
d.) Express P(X1 + X2 < 1) as a double integral; there is no need to evaluate it.
