Component failure order probability

Let the random variables XX and YY denote the time to failure of component A and component B, respectively, of an instrument. The joint probability density function of (X,Y)(X,Y) is given by f(x,y)={110e−12(y+3−x),5<x<10,y>x−3,0,otherwise.f(x,y)=\begin{cases}\dfrac{1}{10}e^{-\frac{1}{2}(y+3-x)},&5<x<10, y>x-3,\\0,&\text{otherwise.}\end{cases} The probability, that component B fails before component A, is equal to
