**Title: Joint Probability Density Function Analysis**

**Joint Probability Density Function**

Let \( X \) and \( Y \) have a joint probability density function (pdf) given by:

\[ f(x,y) = \begin{cases} 
3x, & 0 \leq y \leq x \leq 1, \\ 
0, & \text{otherwise}.
\end{cases} \]

**Problems:**

1. **Find the Marginal PDFs of \( X \) and \( Y \):**
   
   Determine the marginal probability density functions of \( X \) and \( Y \).

2. **Find \( P\left( X \leq \frac{3}{4} \mid Y \leq \frac{1}{2} \right) \):**

   Calculate the conditional probability \( P\left( X \leq \frac{3}{4} \mid Y \leq \frac{1}{2} \right) \).

3. **Find \( E[T] \) where \( T = X + Y \):**

   Let \( T = X + Y \). Find the expected value \( E[T] \).

---

**Explanation of Terms and Steps:**

1. **Marginal PDFs:**
   - The marginal pdf of \( X \), \( f_X(x) \), is found by integrating the joint pdf \( f(x,y) \) over all possible values of \( y \).
     \[ f_X(x) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x,y) \, dy \]

   - The marginal pdf of \( Y \), \( f_Y(y) \), is found by integrating the joint pdf \( f(x,y) \) over all possible values of \( x \).
     \[ f_Y(y) = \int_{-\infty}^{\infty} f(x,y) \, dx \]

2. **Conditional Probability:**
   - The conditional probability \( P\left( X \leq \frac{3}{4} \mid Y \leq \frac{1}{2} \right) \) requires the joint pdf and the marginal pdf of \( Y \).

3. **Expected Value \( E[T] \):**
   - The expected value \( E[T] \) is calculated by using the definition of expectation for random variables \( X \) and \( Y \).
