Each front tire on a particular type of vehicle is supposed

Each front tire on a particular type of vehicle is supposed to be filled to a pressure of 26 psi. Suppose the actual air pressure in each tire is a random variable—X for the right tire and Y for the left tire, with joint pdf given below.

f(x, y) =

(a) Compute the covariance between X and Y. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

(b) Compute the correlation coefficient p for this X and Y. (Round your answer to four decimal places.)
