Question: Suppose that the length of time \(Y\) it takes a worker to complete a certain task has the probability

density function given by

\[f(y)= \begin{cases}e^{-(y-\theta)}, & y>\theta \\ 0, & \text { elsewhere }\end{cases}\]

where \(\theta\) is a positive constant that represents the minimum time until task completion. Let \(Y_{1}, Y_{2}, \ldots, Y_{n}\) denote a random sample of completion times from this distribution. Find

  1. the density function for \(Y_{(1)}=\min \left(Y_{1}, Y_{2}, \ldots, Y_{n}\right)\)

b \(E\left(Y_{(1)}\right)\)
