Question
1. Part (a) and (b) of this question are independent.

(a) Suppose a random variable \( U \) follows Uniform(0,1) distribution. Define 
\[ W = \log \left( \frac{U}{1-U} \right). \] 
Here log is log base \( e \).
   i. Find the range of \( W \).
   ii. Find the density of \( W \).

(b) The joint distribution of two random variables \( X \) and \( Y \) is
   \[
   f_{X,Y}(x,y) = 8xy \, 1_{(0<y<x<1)}.
   \]
   Here \( 8xy \, 1_{(0<y<x<1)} \) means \( 8xy \) when \( 0 < y < x < 1 \) and zero otherwise. Define \( Z = \frac{Y}{X} \).
   i. Find the range of \( X \). Find the range of \( Z \).
   ii. Find the joint density \( g_{X,Z}(x,z) \) of \( X \) and \( Z \). Hint: Use the change of variable formula for \( (X,Y) \) to \( (X,Z(X,Y)) \) in Lecture 31.
   iii. Find the marginal density of \( X \).
   iv. Find the marginal density of \( Z \).
   v. Are \( X \) and \( Z \) independent?
