In the study learning material (SLM), you have seen many situations where Poisson distribution is suitable and discussed some examples of such situations. Create your own example for a situation other than which are discussed in SLM. If you denote your created random variable by X then find the probability that X is less than 2.

- Each of them will reach either on time or 10 minutes late or 20 minutes late or 30 minutes late or 40 minutes late or 50 minutes late or 1 hour late. All these arrival times are equally likely for both of them.
- Whoever of them reaches first will wait for the other to meet only for 10 minutes. If within 10 minutes the other does not reach, he/she leaves the place and they will not meet.
Find the probability of their meeting.
