Homework 12: Jointly Distributed Discrete Random Variables
- Section 3.2, #7, Section 3.3, #8.
- Section 3.4, #2(a)(c)(d)(e), Section 3.5, #2(a).
- Four cards are drawn from a deck. Let \(X\) be the number of
kings drawn and \(Y\) the number of queens.
- Find \(f_{X,Y}(x,y)\).
- Use part (a) to find the probability that exactly 2 kings are drawn.
- Two dice are tossed. Let \(X\) be the number of 2's that appear and \(Y\) the number of 3's. Write the matrix giving \(f_{X,Y}(x,y)\). Define a third random variable \(Z\) by \(Z=X+Y\). Use \(f_{X,Y}(x,y)\) to find \(f_Z(z)\).
