The distributions of incomes in two cities follow the two Pareto-type pdfs
\(f(x)=\frac{2}{x^{3}}, \quad 1<x<\infty$, and $g(y)=\frac{3}{y^{4}}, \quad 1<y<\infty\),
respectively. Here one unit represents $20,000. One person with income is selected at random from each city. Let \(X\) and \(Y\) be their respective incomes. Compute \(P(X < Y)\).
