Q1.The joint probability density function of a bivariate variable (X, Y) is given by

fxy (x, y) ={k (x + y) ; 0 < x < 3 , 0 < y < 3

where k is constant.

(i) Find the value of k.

(ii) Find the marginal probability density function of X and Y.

(iii) Are X and Y independent?

Q2.The joint probability density function of a bivariate variable (X, Y) is given by
