Q1. Suppose (X, Y ) is a two-dimensional random variable having the joint probability
density function given by
{
kx if 0 < x < y < 1
fXY (x, y) =
0 otherwise.

Determine the value of k. Check the independence of X and Y . Find E(X 2 Y ).


Q2. The joint probability mass function of two random variables X and Y is P (X =
0, Y = 1) = 13 , P (X = 1, Y = −1) = 13 , and P (X = 1, Y = 1) = 31 . (a) Find
the marginal probability mass functions of X and Y . (b) Find the mean of X and
variance of Y .
Q3. A two dimensional random variable (X, Y ) has the joint probability mass function
given by
x2 + y
P (X = x, Y = y) = , x = 0, 1, 2, 3; y = 0, 1.

(i) Find the marginal distributions of X and Y , and (ii) conditional distributions of
X given Y and Y given X.
Q4. A two dimensional random variable (X, Y ) has the joint probability mass function
given by

λx e−λ py (1 − p)x−y
fXY (x, y) = , y = 0, 1, 2, . . . , x; x = 0, 1, 2, . . . ,
y!(x − y)!

where λ > 0, 0 < p < 1 are constants. Find the marginal probability mass functions
of X and Y.
Q5. A two dimensional random variable (X, Y ) has the joint density function given by

(6 − x − y) if 0 < x < 2, 2 < y < 4
fXY (x, y) =
0 otherwise.

Find the probabilities P (X < 1) and P (Y < 3).


Q6. Suppose that two-dimensional continuous random variable (X, Y ) has joint pdf
{
kx2 y if 0 < x, y < 1
fXY (x, y) =
0 otherwise.

Find the value of k. Further find the P (0 < X < 43 , 13 < Y < 2) and P (X > Y ).
Q7. The two-dimensional probability function of the discrete random variables X and
Y is given by fXY (x, y) = c(2x + y), where x and y can assume all integers such
that 0 ≤ x ≤ 2 0 ≤ yle3, and fXY (x, y) = 0 otherwise. Then find the value of
the constant c. Find P (X = 2, Y = 1). Find P (X ≥ 1, Y ≤ 2). Find marginal
probability functions of X and Y.

Q8. A gun is aimed at a certain point (origin of the coordinate system). Because of the
random factors, the actual hit point can be any point (X, Y ) in a circle of radius
R about the origin. Assume that the joint density of X and Y is constant in this
circle given by
{
k if x2 + y 2 ≤ R2
fXY (x, y) =
0 otherwise.

Compute k, and then obtain the marginal density function of X.


Q9. Find the marginal distributions given that the joint distribution of X and Y is
{ x+y

0 otherwise.

Also determine the conditional mean and variance of X, given Y = 1.


Q10. Joint probability mass function of (X, Y ) is given by fXY (x, y) = k(2x + 3y); x =
0, 1, 2; y = 1, 2, 3. Find all the marginal and conditional probability and also find
probability distribution of X + Y .
