Answer #1

The joint distribution is given to be as follows,

(with X on the horizontal and Y on the vertical). Here the missing value is obtained by subtracting the sum of all other values from 1 since the total probability must be equal to 1. Then,

a)
  


b) The marginal distribution of Y is obtained as,

c) Conditional distribution of X given Y = -1,

d) Expected value of XY.
