Probability - Tree Diagram problem

Click For Summary
The discussion revolves around a user requesting to delete their post due to a mistake in the problem and textbook related to a probability tree diagram. They express confusion about the distribution of X=1 and Y=2, indicating a specific part of the tree that does not match their expectations. Another user points out that deleting posts after receiving responses contradicts forum policy and emphasizes the importance of quoting in replies to maintain thread integrity. The conversation highlights the challenges of accurately labeling branches in probability diagrams and the need for clarity in problem-solving. Overall, the thread underscores the importance of proper communication and adherence to forum guidelines in collaborative learning environments.

Please delete this, I made a mistake with the problem and textbook.

Can you describe your intent with the attached tree? That is, how have you chosen your labels on your branches? Why do you know there is something wrong?

Because it ask me to write down the distribution of X=1 and Y=2 and I don't get the correct answer.
and the only part that don't match is where I circled.

@MostlyHarmless: @masterchiefo: Masterchiefo it is contrary to forum policy to delete your question after it has received a response. And MostlyHarmless, this is why posters are encouraged to include the quote in their post by using the "reply" button to prevent the OP from destroying the thread.
 
First, I tried to show that ##f_n## converges uniformly on ##[0,2\pi]##, which is true since ##f_n \rightarrow 0## for ##n \rightarrow \infty## and ##\sigma_n=\mathrm{sup}\left| \frac{\sin\left(\frac{n^2}{n+\frac 15}x\right)}{n^{x^2-3x+3}} \right| \leq \frac{1}{|n^{x^2-3x+3}|} \leq \frac{1}{n^{\frac 34}}\rightarrow 0##. I can't use neither Leibnitz's test nor Abel's test. For Dirichlet's test I would need to show, that ##\sin\left(\frac{n^2}{n+\frac 15}x \right)## has partialy bounded sums...
