Let X and Y be a pair of continuous random variables with a joint density fx,y(x,y). Assume that fx,y(x,y) = cxy for x greater than or equal to 0, y greater than or equal to 0, and x + y less than or equal to 1. Here c is a constant. Assume that fx,y(x,y) is 0 elsewhere.  C = 24  What is the value of conditional density fy|x (y | 1/2)? With the conditional density of Y given X, what is E[ Y | X = 1/2]?
