6 The joint PMF of X and Y is given by
y\x | -1 | 0 | 1 | |
-1 | p | q | p | |
0 | q | 0 | q | |
1 | p | q | p | |
(a) Describe the possible values of p and q.
(b) Find the marginal PMFs of X and Y .
(c) Find the conditional PMF of Y given X = x for x = −1, 0, 1
(d) Find the conditional expectation of Y given X = x for x = −1, 0, 1, and deduce cov(X, Y ).
(e) Are X and Y independent? Explain.
PLEASE ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS, THANKS :)
