1. Problem 1. As defined in the problem, A B is r r r r r r r r r r r r r r
rthat are not in B. Thus, the items to be noted are true. Making use of

P(A∪ B) = P(A)+ P(B — A)
r r r r r r r r r r r
and that: r
P(B) = P(B — A)+ P(A∩ B).
r r r r r r r r r r r
Combining the two results, we find that: r r r r r r
P(A ∪ B) = P(A) +P(B) — P(A ∩ B).

(a) It is clear that fX(α) ≥ 0. Thus, we need only check that the

Thus fX(α) is indeed a PDF. r r r r r r
(b) Because fX(α) is even, its expected value must be zero. Addition-

Clearly the piece of the integral associated with ue−u /2 is zero. The
