Randolph enters a restaurant and queues in line to order his favorite food. Suppose that the restaurant canserve his favorite food within X minutes after Randolph enters the restaurant. Suppose further thatRandolph eats his food within Y minutes after it is served, independent of the serving time.Let W = X + Y be the total amount of time that Randolph stays inside the restaurant. The PDFs of the randomvariables X and Y are shown below.fx(x)0.10.1fx (y)10fy(y) = 0.1e-0.1y152050What is the probability that Randolph stays within the restaurant for at most 18 minutes, i.e. P(W <18)?What is the expected value (in minutes) that Randolph stays within the restaurant?XY
