fXYZ (^) bx, y, z g =fZY/X (^) bz, y / x g fX (^) b gx
fZY/X (^) bz, y / x g = fZ/XY (^) bz / x, y f g b gY y
⇒ fXYZ (^) ( x, y,z (^) ) =fZ/XY (^) ( z x, y| (^) ) fY X (^) / ( y x| (^) ) fX ( x)

Problem 2
4.
Since X and Y are exponential random variables, then X ≥ 0 and Y ≥ 0.
Now we start with FZ (^) b gz = P Z £z
F (^) Z b gz = P X - Y £z
when X Y X Y z X Y z Y x z
when X Y X Y z Y X z Y x z
y y = x +z
y = x - z

In this case, both X and Y only take on non-negative values: X ≥ 0 and Y ≥ 0. In addition, Y is never bigger than X: Y ≤X
F Z z P Z z P X Y z P Y z x Y x X
The desired area in the 2-dimensional x-y space is shown in the figure below. Note that since X and Y are non-negative, Z=X+Y is also non-negative.
