Step 1
Introduction:
The joint density function of two random variables X and Y is given below:
f(x,y)={e(x+y);   0x,0y<0; elsewhere}
The marginal density function of X is,
f(x)=0e(x+y)dy
=ex0eydy
=ex[ey]0
=ex[ee0]
=ex[0,1]
=ex
Step 2
The probability of P(X > 3) is obtained as 0.0498 from the calculation given below:
P(X>3)=3exdx
=[ex]3
=[ee3]
=[0e3]
=e3
=0.0498
Thus, the probability of P(X > 3) is 0.0498.
