Suppose that Y1 and Y2 are independent and that both are

Chapter 6, Problem 70E

(choose chapter or problem)

Suppose that \(Y_{1} \text { and } Y_{2}\) are independent and that both are uniformly distributed on the interval
, and let \(U_{1}=Y_{1}+Y_{2} \text { and } U_{2}=Y_{1}-Y_{2}\)
a Show that the joint density of \(U_{1} \text { and } U_{2}\) is given by

\(f_{0_{1}, v_{2}}\left(u_{1}, u_{2}\right)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}  1 / 2, & -u_{1}<u_{2}<u_{1}, 0<u_{1}<1 \text { and } \\  & u_{1}-2<u_{2}<2-u_{1}, 1 \leq u_{1}<2 \\  0, & \text { otherwise }

\end{array}\right.\)

b Sketch the region where \(f_{v_{1}, v_{2}}\left(u_{1}, u_{2}\right)>0\)
c Show that the marginal density of \(U_{1}\) is

\(f_{0}\left(u_{1}\right)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}  u_{1}, & 0<u_{1}<1 \\  2-u_{1}, & 1 \leq u_{1}<2 \\

0, & \text { otherwise }  \end{array}\right.\)

d Show that the marginal density of \(U_{2}\) is

f_{b_{2}}\left(u_{2}\right)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}  1+u_{2}, & -1<u_{2}<0 \\

1-u_{2}, & 0 \leq u_{1}<1 \\  0, & \text { otherwise }  \end{array}\right.

e Are \(U_{1} \text { and } U_{2}\) independent? Why or why not?
