Consider the random variables X and Y with the joint density function shown to the right. (a) Find the marginal distributions of X and Y. (b) Find P(X > 0.7, Y > 0.9). (a) Select the correct choice below and fill in the answer box to complete your choice. A. The marginal distribution of X is g(x) = , for 0 ≤ y ≤ 2. B. The marginal distribution of X is g(x) = , for 0 ≤ x ≤ 1.

Consider the following joint probability density function of the random variables $X$ and $Y$ : $$ f(x, y)=\left\{\begin{array}{ll} \frac{3 x-y}{11}, & 1<x<3,0<y<1, \\ 0, & \text { elsewhere. } \end{array}\right. $$ (a) Find the marginal density functions of $X$ and $Y$. (b) Are $X$ and $Y$ independent? (c) Find $P(X>2)$
