    Pair of random variables having joint pdf f (x, y); x> 0; y> o.
    How to calculate p (x <1 & y <1)
    Thanks

    Wont you want to do double integration from 0 to 1 for both variables??

    This is the sub question followed by the question to calculate the marginal probability of x & y. I think, the solution is to sum up the integrals of marginal pdf of x & y over the limits x <1; y <1.
    Is it the correct method?

    Thanks

    I don't have the exact question.

    For computing joint probability, I agree you need double integration.
