Computing the joint CDF of $(X,X^3)$ with $X$ exponential












1












$begingroup$



Let $Xsim text{Exponential}(lambda)$, and let $Y=X^3$. Compute the joint CDF $F_{X,Y}$ of $(X,Y)$.




With my current understanding, I can only come up with using the one dimensional change in variable where I set $F_Y(y) = P(Y leq y) = P((lambda e^{-lambda x})^3leq y)$, then isolating for y, and then apply the transformation.



I am not sure if this is even a valid solution.

    For transformation $X=Y^{frac{1}{3}}$ Apply $g(y)=f(x)|frac{dx}{dy}|$ Note that this formula works only when your g(x) is monotone .

    $Y$ and $X$ are totally dependant. The pdf should include something like $delta(y-x^ 3)$, the cdf something equivalent

The PDF of $(X,Y)$ does not exist since the support of the distribution of $(X,Y)$ is a subset of the set ${(x,y)inmathbb R^2,;,y=x^3}$, whose measure is zero.



To compute the CDF $F$ of $(X,Y)$, note that $${Xleqslant x,Yleqslant y}={Xleqslant x,X^3leqslant y}={Xleqslant x,Xleqslant y^{1/3}}={Xleqslantmin{x,y^{1/3}}}$$ In terms of the CDF $F_X$ of $X$, one gets




$$F(x,y)=F_X(min{x,y^{1/3}})$$




In the present case, if $x$ or $y$ is negative, then $F(x,y)=0$, and, if $x$ and $y$ are nonnegative, then
$$
F(x,y)=1-e^{-lambdamin{x,y^{1/3}}}
$$
