Question

A manufacturing company employs two inspecting devices to sample a fraction of their output for quality control purposes. The first inspection monitor is able to accurately detect 99.3% of the defective items it receives, whereas the second is able to do so in 99.7% of the cases. Assume that four defective items are produced and sent out for inspection. Let X and Y denote the number of items that will be identified as defective by inspecting devices 1 and 2, respectively. Determine the following. 

1) fxy(x,y) 
2) fx (x)
3) E(x)
4) E(Y|X=2)
5) V(Y|X=2)
6) Are X and Y independent? Why?
