Let X and Y be jointly continuous random variables with joint PDF

f X , Y ( x , y ) = { 6 x y ,   0 ≤ x ≤ 1 ,     0 ≤ y ≤ square root of x

                           0 ,                       o t h e r w i s e .

 

Then the marginal PDF

f X ( x ) = { A ,           0 ≤ x ≤ 1 , 

                  0 ,             o t h e r w i s e .

Find the function A.
