Let f 1|2 (x 1 |x 2 ) = c 1 x 1 /x 2 2 ,

Question:

Let f1|2(x1|x2) = c1x1/x22 , 0 < x1 < x2, 0 < x2 < 1, zero elsewhere, and f2(x2) = c2x42 , 0 < x2 < 1, zero elsewhere, denote, respectively, the conditional pdf of X1, given X2 = x2, and the marginal pdf of X2. Determine:

(a) The constants c1 and c2.

(b) The joint pdf of X1 and X2.

(c) P(1/4 < X1 < 1/2|X2 = 5/8).

(d) P(1/4 < X1 < 1/2).
