Asked by D

Suppose that
X
is uniformly distributed on the interval
[3,8]
, and that given
X=x,Y
is uniformly distributed on the interval
[0,x]
. That is, the conditional PDF of
Y
given
X=x
is
f
Y∣X

(y∣x)=
x
1

,0≤y≤x
Find the PDF
f
Y

(y)
of
Y
. It will take the form
f

y∈[d,e]
y∈[e,f]
otherwise


Answer by finding

Problem 3(b) 3.0 points possible (graded, results hidden) Continue from the problem above, i.e.
X
and
Y
are defined as above. Calculate
P(∣X−Y∣≤1)
