Problem 2. (15 pts) A fair die is tossed 20 times in succession. Let Y be the total number of sixes that occur, and let X be the number of sixes occurring in the first 5 tosses. Determine the conditional probability mass function P(X r|Y ).
5. (15 pts) a) A coin is tossed 5 times. Let X be the number of Heads on the first 4 tosses and Y be the number of Heads on the last three tossed.

(a) Consider four independent rolls of a 6-sided die. Let X be the number of l's and let y be the number of 2's obtained. What is the joint PMF of X and Y? (b) Let X1, X2, X3 be independent random variables, uniformly distributed on [0,1]. Let Y be the median of X1, X2, X3 (that is the middle of the three values). Find the conditional CDF of X1, given that Y = 0.5. Under this conditional distribution, is...

Two fair 6-sided dice are tossed. Let X denote the number appearing on the first die and let y denote the number appearing on the second die. Show that X, Y are independent by showing that P(X = x, Y = y) = P(X = x) x P(Y = y) for all (x,y) pairs.
2. (a) Die #1 has 6 sides numbered 1, . . . , 6 and die #2 has 8 sides numbered 1, . . . , 8. One of these two dice is chosen at random and rolled 10 times. Find the conditional probability that you have selected die #1 given that precisely three 1’s were rolled. (b) Let X and Y be independent Poisson random variables with mean 1. Are X − Y and X + Y independent? Justify...
A fair tetrahedron (four-sided die) is rolled twice. Let X be the random variable denoting the total number of dots in the outcomes, and Y be the random variable denoting the maximum in the two outcomes. Thus if the outcome is a (2, 3) then X = 5 while Y = 3. (a) What are the ranges of X and Y ? (b) Find the probability mass function (PMF) of X and present it graphically. Describe the shape of this...
