An integer N is chosen from 1 to 10 uniformly at random.

Two random variables are defined: X is 1 plus the remainder on division of N by 3. So e.g. when N = 5, the remainder on division by 3 is 2, so X = 3.

Y is dN/3e. So e.g. when N = 5, Y = 2.

(a) Find E[X], E[Y ] and Var[Y ].

(b) Are X and Y independent?

Let n be a positive integer and p and r two real numbers in the interval...
Let n be a positive integer and p and r two real numbers in the interval (0,1). Two random variables X and Y are defined on a the same sample space. All we know about them is that X∼Geom(p) and Y∼Bin(n,r). (In particular, we do not know whether X and Y are independent.) For each expectation below, decide whether it can be calculated with this information, and if it can, give its value (in terms of p, n, and r)....
