Joint probability function


The joint probability function of 2 discrete RVs X and Y is given by

PX,Y(x,y) = k(2x+y) x=1,2 ; y=1,2

= 0 otherwise

where k is a constant.

a) Find the value of k

b) Find the marginal probability functions of X and Y.

c) Are X and Y independent?

d) Compute the conditional probability function of Y given x = 2

e) Find the mean and the variance of X and Y

f) Find the correlation coefficient of X and Y
