QUESTION:

In Exercise 5.18, \(Y_{1}\) and \(Y_{2}\) denoted the lengths of life, in hundreds of hours, for components of types I and II, respectively, in an electronic system. The joint density of \(Y_{1}\) and \(Y_{2}\) is

                          \(f\left(y_{1}, y_{2}\right)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}

(1 / 8) y_{1} e^{-\left(y_{1}+y_{2}\right) / 2}, & y_{1}>0, y_{2}>0, \\

0, & \text { elsewhere. }

\end{array}\right.

\)

Are \(Y_{1}\) and \(Y_{2}\) independent?

ANSWER:

Solution :

Step 1 of 1:

Let and have joint density function.

Then the joint density function and  is

Our goal is:

We need to find and are independent or not.

Now we have to find and are independent or not.
