hello sir~

if 2X and Y are independent,

then X and 2Y are independent.

Hint: What's the definition of independence
for random variables?
Express probabilities involving 2X and Y in terms of
probabilities involving X and 2Y.

--------------------------------------
um... i think...

Let W = 2X, Y = Y.
Let W and Y be continuous random variable having
joint density function f.
(of course, let joint distribution function be F_(W,Y) (w,y).)

Too complicated, and not general enough.
