Abd El-Moneim A.M. Teamah and Ahmed M.T. Abd El-Bar

Abstract

Problem statement: The distributions of R = X+Y and W = X/(X+Y), where X and Y follow Lawrance and Lewis`s bivariate exponential distribution, is generalized. Approach: In this research we found mixtures of sum of bivariate exponential random variables. Results: Also we calculated the probability density function (pdf) of the random sum of mixtures of sum of bivariate exponential random variables. Conclusion/Recommendations: In this study we investigated the pdf of random sum of mixtures of sum of bivariate exponential random variables.
