Question: The random variables X and Y are distributed according to the joint PDF f X , Y ( x , y )={ ax^ 2 if1

The random variables X and Y are distributed according to the joint PDF

f X,Y (x,y)={ax^2 if1x2and0yx,

0 otherwise

  1. Find the constant a

  1. Determine the marginal PDF fY(y)

a. If 0y1

b. if 1<y2

  1. Determine the conditional expectation of 1/((X^2)*Y), given that Y=5/4

I do not need the answer but hints. I already answered question 1.
