Question 9

An electronic assembly consists of two subsystems, say, A and B. From previ- ous 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)
