The marginal probability density functions of X and Y are
and
, respectively. X and Y are not independent. The conditional probability density functions of X given Y = y and Y given X = x are 2x and 2y, respectively. The density function of Z =
.
Marginal probability density function of X: f_X(x) = ∫₀¹ 2xy dy =
, 0 < x < 1
Marginal probability density function of Y:
f_Y(y) = ∫₀¹ 2xy dx =
, 0 < y < 1
Independence of X and Y:
Since the joint probability density function f(x, y) is not a product of the marginal probability density functions f_X(x) and f_Y(y), X and Y are not independent.
Conditional probability density function of X given Y = y:
f_X|Y(x|y) = (2xy) /
= 2x, 0 < x < 1
Conditional probability density function of Y given X = x:
f_Y|X(y|x) = (2xy) /
= 2y, 0 < y < 1
Density function of Z =
:
To obtain the density function of Z, we need to perform the transformation of variables from (X, Y) to (Z, θ), where θ =
(Y/X).
The joint density function of Z and θ is given by:
g(z, θ) = 2z /
(θ), 0 < z < ∞, 0 < θ < π/2
The density function of Z can be obtained by integrating g(z, θ) over all possible values of θ for a given value of z:
f_Z(z) = 2z / π(1 +
), 0 < z < ∞
