Random vector and CDF

I have to compute CDF of random vector (X,Y) using the following probability density function



       c   x>=0, y>=0 and x+y<=2 


f(x,y) = 0 otherwise



The solution has several cases (x>=0,y>=0, x+y<=2) (x>=2,0<=y<2), (y>=2,0<=x<2), (0<=x<2, 0<=y<2,x+y>=2). Why I should be interested to find these cases?
Could someone help me to understand this exercise?
thank you in advance.

  • The joint CDF is the probability $F(x,y)=P(Xle x,Yle y)=int_{-infty}^yint_{-infty}^x f(u,v),du,dv$ for all $(x,y)$. We should consider the different cases you mention because we need them to specify the CDF completely. It is only natural that $F(x,y)$ turns out to be a piecewise function, completely defined for all possible values that $x$ and $y$ can take. Note that $F:mathbb R^2to mathbb R$.

  • For example if I want to compute F(x,y) for this case (0<=x<2, 0<=y<2,x+y>=2), what are the endpoints of the integrals?
