Thank you for your suggestions. When you talked about the double itegral did you mean solve the pdf for 1 variable by
\int \int_{0}^{1} X+y dydx x^2/2 + x/2 Where this is a function of one variable. Do I then plot this function ? regards David Winsemius wrote: > > > On May 11, 2009, at 9:46 AM, Ben Bolker wrote: > >> >> >> >> beetle2 wrote: >>> >>> For a homework question. >>> I was wondering if rcmdr has a function to plot a graph of a >>> bivariate >>> function of X and Y. >>> I have a function with joint pdf >>> >>> fX,Y(x,y) = x+y for 0<x<1 , 0<y<1 >>> >>> I've tried >>>> x <- seq(0,1,.001) >>>> y <- seq(0,1,.001) >>>> r = x+y >>>> plot(r) >>> >>> but it seems to just add them together say .2+.2 .3+.3 not other >>> possibilities like >>> >>> .9 + .1 >>> >>> >> >> We don't do homework questions here, but a few hints: >> >> (1) the question doesn't seem to be fully specified.
