Question 1: Random Variable

August 2016 Problem 3


Solution

a)
Because $ X, Y $ are independent jointly distribute Poisson random variable.
$ P_{X+Y}(x,y)=P_X(x)\dot P_Y(y) $
Such that $ P_Z(z)=\sum_{x=0}^{z} e^{-\lambda}\dfrac{\lambda^x}{x!}e^{-\mu}\dfrac{\mu^{(z-x)}}{(z-x)!} =\dfrac{e^{-(\lambda+\mu)}}{z!}\sum_{x=0}^{z} \begin{pmatrix} z \\ x \end{pmatrix} \lambda^x\mu^{(z-x)} =e^{-(\lambda+\mu)}\dfrac{(\lambda+\mu)^z}{z!} $
b)
when $ x>n $
$ P_X(x)=0 $
when $ 0\le x\le n $
$ P_{X|Z}(x|n) = P_{X,Y}(X=x,Y=n-x|Z=n)=\dfrac{e^{-\lambda}\dfrac{\lambda^x}{x!}e^{-\mu}\dfrac{\mu^{n-x}}{(n-x)!}}{e^{-(\lambda+\mu)}\dfrac{(\lambda+\mu)^n}{n!}} $
$ =\dfrac{n!}{x!(n-x)!} $$ \dfrac{\lambda^x\mu^{n-x}}{(\lambda+\mu)^n}=\begin{pmatrix}n\\x\end{pmatrix}(\dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda+\mu})^x(\dfrac{\mu}{\lambda+\mu})^{(n-x)} $
$ =\begin{pmatrix}n\\x\end{pmatrix}(\dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda+\mu})^x(1-\dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda+\mu})^{(n-x)} $
Such that $ x $ on condition $ z=n $ is binomial distributed $ n=n $ $ p=\dfrac{\lambda}{\lambda+\mu} $
