Let X1 and X2 be uniformly distributed in the region [−1,1]×[0,1]∪(1,2]×(1,3].
1. Find Joint and Marginal pdf of X1 and X2.
2.Find V (X1 + 3X2) ,( I‘ve asked this question already, but the person didn't give me the correct answer, so please, dont waste my question, if you dont know how to answer this question.)
Given 
 and 
 are uniformly distributed in the region 
.
The region 
 is same as 
1) Since the joint pdf is uniform we have
.
The condition for pdf is

Thus the joint pdf is

The marginal pdfs are


2) The expected values are


The second order moments are


The variance 
 since 
 and 
 are independent is
