Question:

Let X denote the number of times a certain numerical control machine will malfunction: 1, 2, or 3 times on any given day. Let Y denote the number of times a technician is called on an emergency call. Their joint probability distribution is given as

f(x, y) 0.05 0.05 0.05 0.10 0.10 3 0.35 0.00 0.20 0.10


(a) Evaluate the marginal distribution of X.
(b) Evaluate the marginal distribution of Y.
(c) Find P(Y = 3 | X = 2).
