New dental and medical plan options will be offered to state employees next year. An actuary uses the following density function to model the joint distribution of the proportion [math]X[/math] of state employees who will choose Dental Option 1 and the proportion [math]Y[/math] who will choose Medical Option 1 under the new plan options:

[[math]] f(x,y) = \begin{cases} 0.50, \,\, 0 \lt x \lt 0.5, 0 \lt y \lt 0.5 \\ 1.25, \,\, 0 \lt x \lt 0.5, 0.5 \lt y \lt 1 \\ 1.50, \,\, 0.5 \lt x \lt 1, 0 \lt y \lt 0.5 \\ 0.75, \,\, 0.5 \lt x \lt 1, 0.5 \lt y \lt 1 \\ \end{cases} [[/math]]

Calculate [math]\operatorname{Var} (Y | X = 0.75)[/math].
