A filtration process removes a random proportion of particulates in water to which it is applied. Suppose that a sample of water is subjected to this process twice. Let x1 be the proportion of the particulates that are removed by the first pass. Let X2 be the proportion of what remains after the first pass that is removed by the second pass. Assume that X1 and X2 are independent random variables with common pdf. f(x) = 4x3, for 0 < x <1 and f(x) = 0 otherwise. Let Y be the proportion of the original particulates that remain in the sample after two passes. Then Y = (1 - X1)(1 - X2). Find E(Y).
