Question:

Let X1, X2,... be independent positive continuous random variables with a common density function f , and suppose this sequence is independent of N, a Poisson random variable with mean λ. Define N(t) = number of i N : Xi t Show that {N(t), t 0} is a nonhomogeneous Poisson process with intensity function λ(t) = λ f (t).
