An electronic assembly consists of two subsystems, say, A and B. From previous testing procedures, the following probabilities are assumed to be known:P(A fails) = 0.2P(B fails alone) = 0.15P(A and B fail) = 0.15Evaluate the following probabilities(i) P(A fails B has failed)         (ii) P(A fails alone)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Let the event in which A fails and B fails be denoted by A​ and B​
. P(A​)=0.2
P(A​∩E​)=0.15
P(B fails alone)=`P(B​)−P(A​∩B)`
=`0.15=P(B​)−0.15`

An electronic assembly consists of two sub-systems say A and B. From previous testing procedures, the following probabilities are assumed to be known. P(A fails)=0.2, P(B fails alone)=0.15, P(A and B Fail )=0.15. Evaluate the following probabilities: (i)P(A fails/B has failed ) (ii) P(A fails alone)

Check whether the following probabilities P(A) and P(B) are consistently defined: P(A)=0.5,P(B)=0.7,P(A nn B)=0.6

Check whether the following probabilities P(A) and P(B) are consistently defined: P(A)=0.5,P(B)=0.4,P(A uu B)=0.8

If the probabilities for A to fail in an examination is 0.2 and that for B is 0.3, then the probability that either A or B fails is

If A and B are events having probabilities P(A) = 0.6, P(B) = 0.4 and P(A nn B) = 0 then the probability that neither A nor B occurs is

Check whether the following probabilities P(A) and P(B) are consistently defined (i) P(A)=0.5,P(B)=0.7, P(AnnB)=0.6 (ii) P(A)=0.5, P(B)=0.4, P(AuuB)=0.8

If A and B are two independent events and P(A)=0.2, P(B)=0.3 , then find the values of the following: (i) P (A and B) (ii) P (A and not B) (iii) P (A or B) (iv) P (none of A and B)

Two events A and B are such that P(B) = 0.55 and P(A nn B') = 0.15, then probability that at least one of A, B occurs is

If P(A nn B) = 0.15 . P(B) = 0.90 then P(A//B) is
