5. Let X and Y be i.i.d. U(0, 1). Let Z = min (X, Y) and W = X + Y.
(a) Find the cumulative distribution function for Z and W.
(b) For each of these two random variable Z and W, give two different algorithms to generate the
random variates. One algorithm that uses exactly one random number per random variate, the
other algorithm may use more than one random numbers per random variate.
