Question: The joint density function of two random variables (X) and (Y) is given by [p_{X, Y}(x, y)= begin{cases}frac{x y}{9}, & 0 leq x leq 2,0

The joint density function of two random variables \(X\) and \(Y\) is given by

\[p_{X, Y}(x, y)= \begin{cases}\frac{x y}{9}, & 0 \leq x \leq 2,0 \leq y \leq 3 \\ 0, & \text { elsewhere }\end{cases}\]

(a) Find the marginal density functions of \(X\) and \(Y\).

(b) Find the means and standard deviations of \(X\) and \(Y\).

(c) Find the correlation coefficient \(ho_{X, Y}\).
