| Nov 20, 2019 at 20:42 | comment | added | Sextus Empiricus | So, this method requires m>n. | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 20:32 | comment | added | COOLSerdash | @SextusEmpiricus Thanks! With your hint about the triangle, I was able to work out the other way just now. Many thanks. | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 20:30 | comment | added | Sextus Empiricus | This is another way $$ P(Y \geq cX) = \int_0^{1} \left( \int_{0}^{y/c} nmx^{n-1}y^{m-1}dx \right) dy $$ | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 20:27 | comment | added | Sextus Empiricus | This is actually the integral for $P(y > cx)$ | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 20:20 | comment | added | Sextus Empiricus | @COOLSerdash it is scanning the triangle where y < cx. You can do this in two directions. This one scans the lines cx < y < 1. And x goes from 0 to 1/c. | |
| Nov 20, 2019 at 20:09 | comment | added | COOLSerdash | (+1) Great! May I ask how you found the limits of integration for the joint density? | |
