Question 1

What is the condition for independence between discrete random variables?

  • A: P(X
  • Y) = P(X) Γ— P(Y)
  • B: P(X) = P(Y)
  • C: P(X|Y) = P(X)

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall the equation for independence.

Question 2

True or False: If P(X=1, Y=2)=0.4 and P(X=1)=0.5, P(Y=2)=0.3, X and Y are independent.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Use the independence equation for checking.
