    Conditional expectation of exponential distribution.

    I got it finally. But here is a brief note about it E[t_2-t_1|t_2>t_1] = E[(t_2-t_1)*I_{\{t_2>t_1\}}] = \int_0^{\infty} \int_{t_1}^{\infty}(t_2-t_1)\lambda_1 \lambda_2 e^{-\lambda_1 t_1} e^{-\lambda_2 t_2} dt_2 dt_1 This nicely gives the answer as...

    Conditional expectation of exponential distribution.

    I have been stuck at this calculation. There are two exponential distributions X and Y with mean 6 and 3 respectively. We need to find E[y-x|y>x] I keep getting it negative, which is clearly wrong. Anybody wants to try it?
