The joint probability mass function of two random variables X and Y is given.
1) The marginal probability mass functions of X and Y are computed.
2) The probability that X is less than or equal to 1 and Y is less than or equal to 1 is calculated to be 0.42.
3) X and Y are found to be dependent since the product of their individual probabilities does not equal their joint probability for some values.
