Homework 13: Jointly Distributed Continuous Random Variables
- Section 3.4, #4, 5.
- Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be continuous random variables with joint pdf $$ f_{X,Y}(x,y) = \begin{cases} 2e^{-(x+y)}& 0\lt x\lt y, 0\lt y\\ 0& \text{otherwise} \end{cases} $$ Find \(P(Y\lt 3X)\).

Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be continuous random variables with joint
pdf
$$
f_{X,Y}(x,y)=
\begin{cases}
cx^2y, & \text{if }0\leq y\leq x\leq 1\\
0, & \text{otherwise}
\end{cases}
$$
- Find \(c\).
- Find \(P(X+Y)\geq 1\).
- Find the marginal pdf \(f_Y(y)\).
