QUESTION:

A production facility contains two machines that are used to rework items that are initially defective. Let  be the number of hours that the first machine is in use, and let  be the number of hours that the second machine is in use, on a randomly chosen day. Assume that  and  have joint probability density function given by

     \(f(x)=\left\{\begin{array}{cc}

\frac{3}{2}\left(x^{2}+y^{2}\right) & 0<x<1 \text { and } 0<y<1 \\

0 & \text { otherwise }

\end{array}\right.

\)

a. What is the probability that both machines are in operation for more than half an hour?

b. Find the marginal probability density functions \(f_X(x)\) and \(f_Y(y)\).

c. Are  and  independent? Explain.

f(x)={_0             otherwise ^{3 over 2}(x^2+y^2) 0<x<1 and 0<y<1

f_X(x)

f_Y(y)

ANSWER:

Answer :

Step 1 of 4 :

Given, A production facility contains two machines that are used to rework items that are initially defective.

Let, X = number of hours that the first machine is in use and

       Y = number of hours the second machine is in use

Let X and Y have the joint probability density function
