Question 1

What does a joint distribution describe?

  • The distribution of a single variable
  • The relationship between two or more variables
  • The probability of a variable over time

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about what relationships we study in statistics.

Question 2

True or False: Two independent random variables must have a joint distribution that equals the product of their marginal distributions.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Recall the independence formula discussed in class.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

Consider a joint PMF table for random variables X and Y:

Y/X 1 2
1 0.2 0.3
2 0.1 0.4

Check the independence of X and Y.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Look for any discrepancies between the joint PMF and the products of marginals.

Question 2

Given f(x,y) = xe^{-x}ye^{-y} for x,y>0, determine if X and Y are independent.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Verify by directly calculating the products of the marginals!
