    To check if random variables X and Y are independent, one should compare the left-hand and right-hand sides of the equation fx,y(x,y)= fx(x) . fy(y), where fx,y(x,y) is the joint probability density function and fx(x) and fy(y) are the marginal probability density functions of X and Y respectively. If the two sides are equal, then X and Y are independent; otherwise they are dependent. For the example given, X and Y are dependent.

    d) Are X and Y independent?

    Solution:
    (d) For independence, Check the following condition

    fx,y(x,y)= fx(x) . fy(y)


    If L.H.S is equal to R.H.S then X and Y are independent otherwise dependant. For above example, X and Y
    are dependant.
    (d) For independence, Check the following condition

    fx,y(x,y)= fx(x) . fy(y)


    If L.H.S is equal to R.H.S then X and Y are independent otherwise dependant. For above example, X and Y
    are dependant
