Problem 1:
Let X and Y have joint density function
f(x, y) = { x + y for 0 < x, y < 1; 0 otherwise }
a. Verify that f is indeed a joint probability density function.
b. Find the marginal probability function fX(x) of the random variable X. Use your result to compute the marginal mean μX and variance σX² of X.
c. Find the marginal probability function fY(Y) of the random variable Y. Use your result to compute the marginal mean μY and variance σY² of Y.
d. Compute the product moment E[X, Y] of X and Y.
e. Compute the covariance and the correlation coefficient between X and Y.
f. Find the conditional probability density of Y, given the event X = x, h(y/x), and compute the conditional expectation E[Y/X = 1/2].
