a. f_{X,Y} is a joint density function if its integral over the given support is 1:

\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty\int_{-\infty}^\infty f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=\frac1{10}\int_0^\infty\int_0^\infty e^{-x/2-y/5}\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy

=\displaystyle\frac1{10}\left(\int_0^\infty e^{-x/2}\,\mathrm dx\right)\left(\int_0^\infty e^{-y/5}\,\mathrm dy\right)=\frac1{10}\cdot2\cdot5=1

so the answer is yes.

b. We should first find the density of the marginal distribution, f_Y(y):

f_Y(y)=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dx=\frac1{10}\int_0^\infty e^{-x/2-y/5}\,\mathrm dy

f_Y(y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac15e^{-y/5}&\text{for }y\ge0\\\\0&\text{otherwise}\end{cases}

Then

P(Y\ge8)=\displaystyle\int_8^\infty f_Y(y)\,\mathrm dy=e^{-8/5}

or about 0.2019.

For the other probability, we can use the joint PDF directly:

P(X\le5,Y\le8)=\displaystyle\int_0^5\int_0^8f_{X,Y}(x,y)\,\mathrm dx\,\mathrm dy=1+e^{-41/10}-e^{-5/2}-e^{-8/5}

which is about 0.7326.

c. We already know the PDF for Y, so we just integrate:

E[Y]=\displaystyle\int_{-\infty}^\infty y\,f_Y(y)\,\mathrm dy=\frac15\int_0^\infty ye^{-y/5}\,\mathrm dy=\boxed5

Find the value of x and y.
Leya [2.2K]

Answer:

x = 63 y = 27

Step-by-step explanation:

The straight line is 180 degrees

subtract 117 from 180 to get 63

It says x+7= 90, so subtract x(63) from 90 to get 27
