Question 1

Given two independent random variables with joint distribution defined as f(x,y) = 2xy for 0 < x < 1 and 0 < y < 1, find the marginal distributions, and verify their independence.

💡 Hint: Use integration for marginals and confirm through multiplicative property.

Question 2

A random variable Z is defined as Z = X + Y, where X and Y are independent uniform random variables on [0, 1]. Determine the distribution of Z using joint distributions.

💡 Hint: Consider how to apply convolution for deriving the distribution.
