Suppose that X has density function fx (x) : 2e-2x for x > 0 (and fx (x) = 0 otherwise). Also suppose that the conditional density of Y given X = x (where x > 0) is given by fyjx (y | x) = 2 for 0 < y < x (and fyjx (y | x) = 0 otherwise). Use the Partition Theorem (or otherwise) to determine E (Y), the expected value of Y.
