Q3.

Let XX and YY be continuous random variables with probability density functions PX(x)P_X(x) and PY(y)P_Y(y), respectively. Further, let Y=X2Y = X^2 and

PX(x)={1,x(0,1]0,otherwiseP_X(x) = \begin{cases} 1, & x \in (0,1] \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}

Which one of the following options is correct?

A
PY(y)={12y,y(0,1]0,otherwiseP_Y(y) = \begin{cases} \frac{1}{2\sqrt{y}}, & y \in (0,1] \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}
B
PY(y)={1,y(0,1]0,otherwiseP_Y(y) = \begin{cases} 1, & y \in (0,1] \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}
C
PY(y)={1.5y,y(0,1]0,otherwiseP_Y(y) = \begin{cases} 1.5\sqrt{y}, & y \in (0,1] \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}
D
PY(y)={2y,y(0,1]0,otherwiseP_Y(y) = \begin{cases} 2y, & y \in (0,1] \\ 0, & \text{otherwise} \end{cases}
