- 1)Let x be a uniform random variable over the interval (0, 1). Knowing that y = x2 , calculate:a)Determine Fy(Y) = P(y<=Y),Y real and determine the pdf of y.b)Calculate E[x2] , using the pdf of x.c)Calculate E[y], using the pdf of y and compare with part (b).arrow_forwardSuppose that the random variables X, Y, Z have multivariate PDFfXYZ(x, y, z) = (x + y)e−z for 0 < x < 1, 0 < y < 1, and z > 0. Find (a) fXY(x, y), (b) fYZ(y, z), (c) fZ(z)arrow_forwardLet X and Y be a pair of continuous random variables with a joint density fx,y(x,y). Assume that fx,y(x,y) = cxy for x greater than or equal to 0, y greater than or equal to 0, and x + y less than or equal to 1. Here c is a constant. Assume that fx,y(x,y) is 0 elsewhere. What is the constant c equal to? With the value of c, what is E[XY]?arrow_forward
