Given table
Find the probability for hypergeometric function
Using given statement to get a required probability such as, N = 7,r = 3
P(X = x) = \(\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}

x
\end{array}\right)\left(\begin{array}{l}
N-r \\
n-x
\end{array}\right)}{\left(\begin{array}{l}
N \\
n
\end{array}\right)}\)
Putx = 0 in above equation
P(X = x) = \(\frac{\left(\begin{array}{l}

Integrate depends on y and apply the limit values in given function
\(\int_{27}^{33}\left(\frac{c}{x} y\right)_{27}^x d x\) = 1
\(\int_{27}^{33}\left(c-\frac{c}{x}(27)\right) d x\) = 1
Integrate depends on x and apply the limit values in given function
\(\int_{27}^{33} c d x-27 \int_{27}^{33} \frac{c}{x} d x\)= 1
6c − 27c (ln(33)−3ln(3)) = 1
6c − 5.4181c = 1
c = \(\frac{1}{0.5819}\)
c = 1.72

\(f_X(x)=1.72\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)[y]_{27}^{28}\)
\(f_X(x)=1.72\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)[28-27]\)
\(f_X(x)=1.72\left(\frac{1}{x}\right)\)
Therefore, Therefore, the marginal density for X and the value of P[X≤28] is \(f_{X Y}(x, y)=\frac{1.72}{x}\)

\(\int_0^{40} \int_0^2 c(4 x+2 y+1) d x d y\) = 1
Integrate depends on y and apply the limit values in given function
\(c \int_0^{40}\left(4 x y+2 \frac{y^2}{2}+y\right)_0^2 d x\) = 1
\(c \int_0^{40}\left(4 x(2)+(2)^2+2\right) d x=\) 1
Integrate depends on x and apply the limit values in given function,
\(c \int_0^{40}(8 x+6) d x\)= 1
\(c\left(\frac{8 x^2}{2}+6 x\right)_0^{40}\)= 1
\(c\left(\frac{8(40)^2}{2}+6(40)\right)\)= 1
6640c = 1
c = \(\frac{1}{6640}\)
Therefore, the given function fXY (x,y)=c(4x+2y+1) and the value of c is \(\frac{1}{6640}\)= 1
Page 170 Exercise 7 Problem 17
To solve this, we need to integrate the PDF where X and Y defined as follow.
P(x > 20,y ≥ 1)
20 < x ≤ 0,1 ≤ y ≤ 2
P(x > 20,y ≥ 1) = 1 \(\int_1^2 \int_{20}^{40} \frac{1}{6640}(4 x+2 y+1) d x d y\)
P(x > 20,y ≥ 1) = \(\frac{1}{6640} \int_1^2\left(\frac{4 x^2}{2}+2 y x+x\right) \int_{20}^{40} d y\)
P(x > 20,y ≥ 1) = \(\frac{1}{6640} \int_1^2(40 y+2420) d y\)
P(x > 20,y ≥ 1) = \(\frac{1}{6640} \int_1^2(40 y+2420) d y\)
P(x > 20,y ≥ 1) = \(=\frac{1}{6640}(2480)\)

We can get the probability by integrating it into the following regions.
To find P(X ≤ 0.5 and Y ≤ 0.25)
We can get the probability by integrating it on the following regions
0 < y ≤ 0.25
0.25≤ x < 0.5
Thus, we get that
P(X ≤ 0.5 and Y ≤ 0.25) = \(\int_{0.25}^{0.5} \int_0^{0.25} \frac{1}{x} d y d x\)
P(X ≤ 0.5 and Y ≤ 0.25) = \(\left.\int_{0.25}^{0.5}\left(\frac{y}{x}\right)\right|_0 ^{0.25} d x\)
P(X ≤ 0.5 and Y ≤ 0.25) = \(\left.0.25[\ln (x)]\right|_0 ^{0.25}\)
P(X ≤ 0.5 and Y ≤ 0.25) = 0.25 [(ln(0.5)] − [ln(0.25)]
P(X ≤ 0.5 and Y ≤ 0.25) = 0.1733
Hence, we have found the answer for P(X ≤ 0.5and Y ≤ 0.25) = 0.1733

\(f_X(x)=\int_0^2 \frac{x^3 y^3}{16} d y\)
\(=\frac{x^3}{64}(16-0)\)
\(=\frac{x^3}{4}\), 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
\(\frac{x^3}{4}\) 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
\(\frac{x^3}{4}\) 0 ≤ x ≤ 2
⇒ \(f_Y(y)=\frac{y^3}{4}, 0 \leq y \leq 2\)
Page 171 Exercise 9 Problem 21

To check if X and Y are independent, we can simply check whether or not the following equation is fulfilled.
fx,y(x,y) = fx(x) fy(y)
By substituting the calculated expression , we obtain
\(f_{X, Y}(x, y)=\frac{x^3 y^3}{16}=\frac{x^3}{4} \frac{y^3}{4}=f_X(x) f_Y(y)\)
Hence X and Y are indeed independent.
Hence X and Y are indeed independent.

By substituting the given expression for the marginal density function and the values where x is defined, we proceed to calculate
P(X ≤ 1) \(\left.=\int_0^{\frac{x 3}{4}} d x=\frac{1}{16}-(1-0)=\frac{(}{1}\right)(16)\)
Therefore, the joint density for (X,Y) is given by \(\frac{1}{6}\)

P(X ≥ 25 and Y ≥ 30) = \(\frac{1}{200} \int_{30}^{40}(y-25) d y\)
P(X ≥ 25 and Y ≥ 30)= \(\left.\frac{1}{200}\left(\frac{y^2}{2}-25 y\right)\right|_{30} ^{40}\)
P(X ≥ 25 and Y ≥ 30)= \(\left.\frac{1}{200}\left(\frac{y^2}{2}-25 y\right)\right|_{30} ^{40}\)
P(X ≥ 25 and Y ≥ 30)= \(\frac{1}{200}\)

By integrating the PDF
P(Y>X+10)= \(\int_{30}^{40} \int_{25}^y \frac{1}{200} d x d y\)
\(=\frac{1}{200} \int_{30}^{40}(y-10-20) d y\)
\(=\frac{1}{200} \int_{30}^{40}(y-30) d y\)
\(=\left.\frac{1}{200}\left(\frac{y^2}{2}-30 y\right)\right|_{30} ^{40}\)

\(\int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} \cdots \cdots \int_{-\infty}^{\infty}\) f X1, X2, X3 ,…… X1 (x1 ,x2,x3,……x1 ) dx1 dx2 dx3……..
P[a ≤ X1 ≤ b,c ≤ X ≤ d,e ≤ X3 ≤ f,…..,g ≤ X1 ≤ h
\(\int_a^b \int_c^d \int_e^f \cdots \cdots \int_g^h\) f X1, X2, X3 ,…… X(x1,x2,x3,……xn) dx1dx2 dx3 ………..;. Where a, b, c, …., h are real
Hence, a, b, c, …., h is called the joint density for (X1 ,X2,X3,…..,Xn)
