Joint Discrete Random Variables












0














We roll two dice, and define the random variables X and Y as below.



X : The absolute difference between the rolls.



Y : The minimum of the rolls.



(a) (5 Pts.) Determine the outcomes, and then the values of the random variables.



(b) (5 Pts.) Determine $p_{XY}[x, y]$, and then from $p_{XY}[x, y]$ determine, $p_X[x]$ and $p_Y [y]$.



(c) (5 Pts.) Determine $Cov(X, Y)$ and $rho_{XY}$.



(d) (5 Pts.) Determine the joint CDF. Then, from the joint CDF obtain marginal CDFs.
Show the CDF values in a table with axis x and y.

    @Kelly you must have some idea. Review your notes, check your textbook for similar examples worked through. One does not learn by sitting idly.
