[x,E(Y|x)]

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 12:

Lex the joint probability mass function of X and Y be

f(x,y)=; (x,y)=(0,1),(1,0),(2,1)

The number of variables corresponding to x is not equal to the number of variables corresponding to y. So the support is not rectangular. Hence X and Y are dependent.

Mean of X,=1 and mean of Y, =.

Therefore

  Cov(X,Y)=E(XY)- 

                 =(0)(1)+(1)(0)+(2)(1)-1()

                 =0+0+-

                 =0

Thus correlation coefficient  becomes equal to 0, which implies X and Y are independent. But we have that X and Y are dependent.
