$ \color{blue}\text{1. } \left( \text{25 pts} \right) \text{ Let X, Y, and Z be three jointly distributed random variables with joint pdf} f_{XYZ}\left ( x,y,z \right )= \frac{3z^{2}}{7\sqrt[]{2\pi}}e^{-zy} exp \left [ -\frac{1}{2}\left ( \frac{x-y}{z}\right )^{2} \right ] \cdot 1_{\left[0,\infty \right )}\left(y \right )\cdot1_{\left[1,2 \right]} \left ( z \right) $
$ \color{blue}\left( \text{a} \right) \text{ Find the joint probability density function } f_{YZ}(y,z). $
$ \color{blue}\text{Solution 1:} $
$ f_{YZ}\left (y,z \right )=\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}f_{XYZ}\left(x,y,z \right )dx $
$ =\frac{3z^{2}}{7\sqrt[]{2\pi}}e^{-zy}\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}exp\left[-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{x-y}{z} \right )^{2} \right ]dx\cdot 1_{[0,\infty)} \left(y \right )\cdot1_{\left [1,2 \right ]}\left(z \right ) $
$ \text{But}\int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}exp\left[-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{x-y}{z} \right )^{2} \right ]dx \text{, looks like the Gaussian pdf, so} $
$ \color{green}\text{It should be added: Based on the Axioms of Probability, this integral over R will be 1.} $
$ \color{green}\text{So we can then replace this integral with one.} $
$ =\frac{3z^{2}}{7\sqrt[]{2\pi}}e^{-zy} \underset{{\color{Orange}\sqrt[]{2\pi}z}} {\underbrace{ {\color{Orange} \frac{7\sqrt[]{2\pi}z}{7\sqrt[]{2\pi}z} } \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty}exp\left[-\frac{1}{2}\left(\frac{x-y}{z} \right )^{2} \right ]dx}}\cdot 1_{[0,\infty)} \left(y \right )\cdot1_{\left [1,2 \right ]}\left(z \right ) $
$ =\frac{3z^{2}}{7}e^{-zy}\cdot 1_{[0,\infty)} \left(y \right )\cdot1_{\left [1,2 \right ]}\left(z \right ) $
$ \color{blue}\text{Solution 2:} $
