a) First we find the marginal distributions and Expectations of X and Y each
X | 0 | 5 | 10 |
P(X) | 0.21 | 0.51 | 0.28 |
x.P(X) | 0 | 2.55 | 2.8 |
E(X) = ∑x.P(X) = 0 + 2.55 + 2.8
= 5.35
E(X) = 5.35
Y | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 |
P(Y) | 0.08 | 0.38 | 0.33 | 0.21 |
y.P(Y) | 0 | 1.9 | 3.3 | 3.15 |
E(Y) = ∑y.P(Y) = 0 + 1.9 + 3.3 + 3.15
=
8.35
E(Y) = 8.35
E(X + Y) = E(X) + E(Y)
= 5.35 +
8.35
=
13.7
E(X + Y) = 13.7
b) Let Z = max(X, Y)
We find the probability of Z by summing up the probabilities given
for max value of X or Y
e.g. Z= 5 => max (X, Y) = 5 thus we sum up probabilities for (X
= 0, Y = 5), (X = 5, Y = 5), (X= 5, Y =
0)
= 0.06 + 0.17 + 0.04
Z | 0 | 5 | 10 | 15 |
P(Z) | 0.03 | 0.27 | 0.49 | 0.21 |
Z.P(Z) | 0 | 1.35 | 4.9 | 3.15 |
E(Z) = ∑z.P(Z) = 0 + 1.35 + 4.9 + 3.15
= 9.4
E(Z) = 9.40
