Question
[Joint PDFS will be covered in Week 7] Let the random variables X and Y be the portions of the time in a day that two alternative routes between Topkapi and Uskudar have congestion (X for Route 1 and Y for Route 2). The joint PDF is given by
fxy(x.y) = 2x2 + y? where Osxys1.
(b) Assume Z=X+Y and W= XY and traffic experts are interested in the expected values of Z and W.
E(Z) = and E(W) =O
(Simplify your answers. Do not convert fractions into decimals.)
(c) Find the variances of X and Y as well as the covariance between them.
v(X) =D VY) =D and Cov(X, Y) =D
(Simplify your answers. Do not convert fractions into decimals.)
(d) The variance of Z can be found as V(Z) =-
(Simplify your answer. Do not convert fractions into decimals.)
