Put . The proposed first density can be written
Its integral is continuous and strictly decreasing in , tends to infinity as , and tends to as . Hence a unique makes its integral one. Since ,
for the density .
Similarly,
Its integral is continuous and strictly increasing from to infinity as ranges from zero to infinity. The unique normalizing gives
for a density . Thus and .
