Show that the following function satisfies the properties of a joint probability mass function.

Determine the following:
(a) P(X <2.5, Y <3) (b) P(X <2.5)
(c) P(Y <3) (d) P(X >1.8, Y > 4.7)
(e) E(X), E(Y ), V (X), and V (Y ).
(f) Marginal probability distribution of X
(g) Conditional probability distribution of Y given that X = 1.5
(h) Conditional probability distribution of X given that Y = 2
(i) E(Y | X = 1.5)
(j) Are X and Y independent?
