A system has 4 components. We want to find the probability that in some implementation of this system components #1 and #2 fail,

and at least one of components #3 and #4 fails as well. (a) Compute this probability under the following two assumptions • component #x fails 25% of the times and component #y fails 30% of the times, where x = 1, 2 and y = 3, 4, • the components fail independently of one another.

Answer:

The probability that components #1 and #2 fail,  and at least one of components #3 and #4 fails is 0.031875

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's define the following events,

F1: Component #1 fails

F2: Component #2 fails

F3: Component #3 fails

F4: Component #4 fails

We are looking for the following probability

P[(F1∩F2)∩(F3∪F4)]

using distributive laws we have

P[(F1∩F2)∩(F3∪F4)] = P[(F1∩F2∩F3)∪(F1∩F2∩F4)] = P(F1∩F2∩F3) + P(F1∩F2∩F4) - P(F1∩F2∩F3∩F4) = P(F1)P(F2)P(F3) + P(F1)P(F2)P(F4) - P(F1)P(F2)P(F3)P(F4) = (0.25)(0.25)(0.3) + (0.25)(0.25)(0.3) - (0.25)(0.25)(0.3)(0.3)=0.031875

by the assumption of independence (the components fail independently) and because P(F1) = P(F2) = 0.25, P(F3) = P(F4) = 0.3

How to find distance between two points?

Distance between two points is the length of the line segment that connects the two points in a plane.

The formula to find the distance between the two points is usually given by D = √((x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁)²)

This formula is used to find the distance between any two points on a coordinate plane or x-y plane.

According to the given question:

The four vertices are D(-1,-3), E(-9, -9), F(-18, 3) and G(-10, 9) check the attachment below.

Distance between two points D = √((x₂ – x₁)² + (y₂ – y₁)²)

Side DE = √((-9 – (-1))² + (-9 – (-3))²) = √100 = 10 units

Side EF = √((-18 – (-9))² + (3 – (-9))²) = √225 = 15 units

Side FG = √((-10 – (-18))² + (9 – 3)²) = √100 = 10 units

Side GD = √((-1 – (-10))² + (-3 – 9)²) = √225 = 15 units

∴ Area of rectangle = l x b = DE . EF

Area = 10 x 15 = 150 sq. units

Hence the area of rectangle with the given coordinates is 150 sq. units
