Final exam   Due to me or under my door by Friday May 16, 10 pm; please email me when you've put it under my door.

I'll be on campus
   1 to 10 pm Tuesday (x dinner); 
   9-12 a.m. Wed.  Reachable by email otherwise.  Other times??  Later in the week?  Who's going to be still working Friday?

Today's class: Mini-exams back+ comments; Questions about anything.

A homework problem: from Conditional Continuous,     3.7.6
 
f(x,y) = 1/20, x < y < x+2, 0 < x < 10
     Find marginals  What should f(x) be?  f(y) is more complicated.  Qualitatively look for shape.  Do by geometry?
       h(y|x).   E(Y|x) should be intuitively obvious.
       Conditional Probabilities:  Draw each situation.

Please do an Evaluation:  Professor's question (last page): "My ability/inclination to think concretely about math and tie pictures and diagrams to computation has ........"   Tell me if, how,  why or why not...
Someone deliver the envelope to the dean of the college's office (Macmillan 224), please.  If you "miss" the envelope, take your evaluation to the secretary there, she'll get it into the envelope.

Thank you for a fun semester!  Happy summer, or life, as the case may be.
