Show that $Y=|X|$ is a complete sufficient statistic for $\theta>0$, where $X$ has the pdf $f_{X}(x ; \theta)=1 /(2 \theta)$, for $-\theta<x<\theta$, zero elsewhere. Show that $Y=|X|$ and $Z=\operatorname{sgn}(X)$ are independent.

Sufficiency, Completeness, and Independence
Let random variables X and Y have the joint PDF: fXY(x,y) = - (x+y) for x >= 0 y >= 0 0 otherwise Specify the marginal PDFs fX(x) and fY(y). Show that the random variables X and Y are independent.

Suppose continuous random variables X and Y have joint pdf f(x, y) = (2/3)(x+2y) for 0 < x < 1 and 0 < y < 1 (and pdf is 0 otherwise). a) Determine the marginal distribution for X. Be sure to give the support set. b) Are X and Y independent? How do you know?
