ANSWER:

Solution:

Step 1 of 4:

 Bolt manufactured for a certain for a certain purpose classified as acceptable,downgraded or scrap. In a  lot of 500 bolts, if X denote the number of downgraded bolts, Y dente the number of scraps. The joint probability mass function of X and Y is given . here we can find the marginal probability function by adding the rows and columns.

.

We have to find

  1. The conditional probability mass function PY/X(y/4).
  2.  The conditional probability mass function PX/Y(x/3).
  3.  The conditional expectation E (Y/X=4).
  4.  The conditional expectation E (X/Y=3).
