Some properties of reliability, ratio, maximum and minimum in a bivariate exponential distribution with a dependence parameter

In this paper, we derived estimators of reliability P (Y < X) and the distribution of ratio in the bivariate exponential density. We also considered the means and variances of M = maxfX;Y g and m = minfX;Y g. We nally presented how E(M), E(m), V ar(M) and V ar(m) are varied with respect to the ones in the bivariate exponential density.
