5x^2 + 6x +13.88 is what is is simplified hope it helped a bit
a.

is a proper joint density function if, over its support,
is non-negative and the integral of
is 1. The first condition is easily met as long as
. To meet the second condition, we require

b. Find the marginal joint density of
and
by integrating the joint density with respect to
:


Then


c. This probability can be found by simply integrating the joint density:


First term (a1) is -1
recursive formula goes like this

is the nth term

is the term before that
we normally have

we see each term is multipying by -3 to get next one
so that would be

where a1=-1
the 3rd option is correct except that it is the explicit formula
so answer is 2nd one
I think true?? i think! im really not sure but yea
2n-9-5-8n+4n
= 2n-14-4n
=2n-14
