Given the following joint distribution of two random variables X and Y
(a) Compute marginal distribution PX(x)
(b) Compute marginal distribution PY(y)
(c) What is the conditional probability P(Y | X = 2)?
Definition of a marginal distribution = If X and Y are discrete
random variables and f (x,y) is the value of their joint
probability distribution at (x,y), the functions given by:
g(x) = Σy f (x,y) and
h(y) = Σx f (x,y) are the marginal distributions of X and Y , respectively.
X/Y | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | P(Y) | y*p(y) |
2 | 0.1 | 0.05 | 0.15 | 0.1 | 0.1 | 0.5 | 1 |
4 | 0.04 | 0.02 | 0.06 | 0.04 | 0.04 | 0.2 | 0.8 |
6 | 0.04 | 0.02 | 0.06 | 0.06 | 0.02 | 0.2 | 1.2 |
8 | 0.02 | 0.01 | 0.03 | 0 | 0.04 | 0.1 | 0.8 |
P(X) | 0.2 | 0.1 | 0.3 | 0.2 | 0.2 | ||
x*p(x) | 0.2 | 0.2 | 0.9 | 0.8 | 1 |
A.
Marginal Distribution of X | |||||
X | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
P(X) | 0.2 | 0.1 | 0.3 | 0.2 | 0.2 |
B.
Marginal Distribution of Y | ||||
Y | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 |
P(Y) | 3.2 | 6.1 | 9.3 | 12.2 |
C.
P(Y | X = 2) = P(X,Y)/P(X=2)
So it would be,
Consitional probability of P(Y|X=2) | ||||
Y | 2 | 4 | 6 | 8 |
P(Y|X=2) | 0.5 | 0.2 | 0.2 | 0.1 |
