    Clearly Y1 and Y2 are

    independent. 5. Similar. Y and Z are independent. Z and U are independent. 6. Similar. Y1, Y2 and Y3 are independent. 7. Consider ln P and use linearity property of independent normal variables. Now use

    the symmetry of normal distribution to get values of L1 and L2. 8. Use the properties of a bivariate normal population. 9. Use the linearity property of normal distribution.
