physical significance of joint distribution function

Hi all,

Could anyone shed some light on the physical significance of "joint distribution function". What does it actually mean?

Say for instance, there is a distribution function given by f(x,y) = (1/(x+y)). What information can be inferred from this declaration?

Try to explain it in as simple words as possible (assume, for the time being, that I am naive to engineering)
