Consider the experiment of tossing two tetrahedra (regular four-sided polyhedron) each with sides labelled 1 to 4. Let X denote the number on the downturned face of the first tetrahedron and Y the larger of the downturned numbers. Find $f_{XY}(x|4)$

Step 1
- X is the number on the downturned face of the first tetrahedron (values 1-4) - Y is the larger of the downturned numbers from both tetrahedra (values 1-4) - We need to find the conditional probability function f_X|Y(x|4), which means we need to find P(X=x|Y=4) Show more…
