Sta301 GDB No 3

1) The document defines the joint probability distribution f(x,y) and calculates the marginal probabilities g(x) and h(y). 2) It then calculates the specific marginal probability values h(3)=5/30 and g(1)=15/30 by using the definitions and formulas for marginal probability. 3) The marginal probabilities g(x) and h(y) are the sums of the joint probability distribution f(x,y) over the other variable.

Answer:

A. Calculate marginal probability of X i.e. g(x).

X h(y)

1 6+4+2/30 =
12/30
2 3+2+1/30 = 6/30
3 2+4+0/30 = 6/30
4 4+0+2/30 = 6/30
B. Calculate marginal probability of Y i.e. h(y).
g(x)
X
1 6+3+2+4/30 = 15/30
2 4+2+4+0/30 = 10/30
3 2+1+0+2/30 = 5/30
C. Calculate h(3).

As we know that:
n
Marginal Probability: g( x i )=∑ f ( x i , y j )
j=1

Now put the values in above formula


3
h(3)=∑ f ( x , 3)
i=1

h(x) = + +0

So, h(x) =

D. Calculate g(1).

As we know that

m
Marginal Probability: h( y j )=∑ f (x i , y j )
i=1

Now put the values in above formula

4
g(1)=∑ f (1 , y)
j=1

6 3 2 4
g ( 1 )= + + +
