Question
Need help please
The random variables \(X\) and \(Y\) have joint density function

\[
f(x, y) = 2 - 1.2x - 0.8y, \quad 0 \leq x \leq 1, \, 0 \leq y \leq 1.
\]

Calculate the covariance of \(X\) and \(Y\) as

\[
\text{Cov}(X, Y) = E\left[(X - \mu_X)(Y - \mu_Y)\right] = \int_0^1 \int_0^1 (x - \mu_X)(y - \mu_Y)f(x, y)\,dy\,dx = \, 
\]

Note: You will have to first calculate \(\mu_X\) and \(\mu_Y\) as 

\[
\mu_X = E[X] = \int_0^1 \int_0^1 x f(x, y)\,dy\,dx,
\]

and

\[
\mu_Y = E[Y] = \int_0^1 \int_0^1 y f(x, y)\,dy\,dx.
\]
