Let X be a uniformly distributed random variable on [0,1]. Then, X divides [0,1] into the subintervals [0,X] and [x,1]. By symmetry, each subinterval has a mean length 0.5. Now pick one of the subintervals at random in the following way: Let Y be independent of X and uniformly distributed on [0,1], and pick the subinterval [0,X], or (X,1] that Y falls in. Let L be the length of the subinterval so chosen. What is the mean length of L ? (you can use Excel to calculate this, but the analytical approach is preferred).

Let Θ be a continuous random variable uniformly distributed on [0,2 Let X = cose and Y sin e. Show that, for this X and Y, X and Y are uncorrelated but not independent. (Hint: As part of the solution, you will need to find E[X], E[Y] and E|XY]. This should be pretty easy; if you find yourself trying to find fx(x) or fy (v), you are doing this the (very) hard way.)
