I think this most often occur on the ocean floor The force of this process is strong enough to create a phenomenon called continental drift. In which, the land of the continents could started to be moved away by the movement of hard rock in the ocean floor.

The discrete random variables x and y take integer values with joint probability distribution given by f (x,y) = a(y−x+1) 0 ≤ x ≤ y ≤ 2 or =0 otherwise, where a is a constant. 1 tabulate the distribution and show that a = 0.1.2 find the marginal distributions of x and y. 3 calculate cov(x,y).4 state, giving a reason, whether x and y are independent. 5 calculate e(y|x = 1).
