Get started for freeA bin of 5 transistors is known to contain 2 that are defective. The transistors are to be tested, one at a time, until the defective ones are identified. Denote by N1 the number of tests made until the first defective is identified and by N2 the number of additional tests until the second defective is identified. Find the joint probability mass function of N1 and N2.
Suppose that W, the amount of moisture in the air on a given day, is a gamma random variable with parameters (t, β). That is, its density is f(w) = βe−βw(βw)t−1/(t), w > 0. Suppose also that given that W = w, the number of accidents during that day—call it N—has a Poisson distribution with mean w. Show that the conditional distribution of W given that N = n is the gamma distribution with parameters (t + n, β + 1)
Suppose X and Y are both integer-valued random variables. Let p(i|j) = P(X = i|Y = j) and q(j|i) = P(Y = j|X = i) Show that P(X = i, Y = j) = p(i|j) i p(i|j) q(j|i
Consider two components and three types of shocks. A type 1 shock causes component 1 to fail, a type 2 shock causes component 2 to fail, and a type 3 shock causes both components 1 and 2 to fail. The times until shocks 1, 2, and 3 occur are independent exponential random variables with respective rates λ1, λ2, and λ3. Let Xi denote the time at which component i fails, i = 1, 2. The random variables X1, X2 are said to have a joint bivariate exponential distribution. Find
