Answer:
Cov (X,Y) = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
hello,
Cov(X,Y) = E(XY) - E(X)E(Y)
we must first find E(XY), E(X), and E(Y).
since X is uniformly distributed on the interval (0,12), then E(X) = 6.
next we find the joint density f(x,y) using the formula
this is because f is uniformly distributed on the the interval (0,12)
also since the conditional probability density of Y given X=x, is uniformly distributed on the interval [0,x], then
for 0≤y≤x≤12
thus
.
hence,
also,
thus Cov(X,Y) = E(XY) - E(X)E(Y)
= 24 - (6)(3)
= 6
