2. $F_X(x) = \begin{cases}0,& \text{if } x < 0, \\ \frac{1}{16},& \text{if } 0 \le x < 1, \\ \frac{5}{16},& \text{if } 1 \le x < 2, \\ \frac{11}{16},& \text{if } 2 \le x < 3, \\ \frac{15}{16},& \text{if } 3 \le x < 4, \\ 1,& \text{if } x \ge 4. \end{cases}$
3. $F_Y(y) = \begin{cases}0,& \text{if } y < 0, \\ \frac{188}{221},& \text{if } 0 \le y < 1, \\ \frac{220}{221},& \text{if } 1 \le y < 2, \\ 1,& \text{if } y \ge 2.\end{cases}$
