Joint pdf given points on square

606 Views Asked by At

I'm unsure of how to find the joint PDF of something like this

Assume that X1, X2 is uniform on the square with corners (-1,0), (0, —1), (0, l), (1,0)

I know that it is double integration with bounds [-1, 1] for x and [-1, 1] for y. However, what am I integrating?

The joint density is given by $f(x,y)=\frac 1 4$ for $-1 \leq x \leq 1,-1 \leq x \leq 1$ (0 elsewhere). The distribution function is $F(x,y)=\frac 1 4 \int_{-1}^{x} \int_{-1}^{y} d xdy=\frac 1 4 (x+1)(y+1)$ for $x,y \in [-1,1]$. It is $\frac 1 4 \int_{-1}^{x} \int_{-1}^{1} d xdy=\frac 1 2 (x+1)$ for $x \in [-1,1], y>1$ etc.
