Abstract
The distributions of products and ratios of random variables are of interest in many areas of the sciences. In this paper, the exact distributions of the product |XY| and the ratio |X/Y| are derived when X and Y are independent Pearson type VII random variables.
Keywords
Pearson type VII distribution; product of random variables; ratio of random variables;
