Marginal probability of Y at a point

20 Views Asked by At

A car vendor sells type A and type B cars. Consider that X and Y represent the types A and B of cars being sold (respectively). Consider the Random Pair (X, Y) to have probability function according to the table:

X/Y 0 1 2
0 .1 .075 .25
1 .1583 .1 .5
2 .075 .1583 .1

What is the value for the marginal distribution function of Y at the point 1.86?

I'm having trouble understanding this. If I add accumulative values for Y marginal probability I end up with $Y_1 = .33, Y_2 = .43, Y = .33$. First of all, it does not add up to 1. But even then, how do I find the value of the marginal probability at a point that is not in the table? How do I extrapolate the marginal function correctly in order to get its value at 1.86?
