A truck contains both hydraulic brakes (reliability 0.96) and mechanical brakes (reliability 0.99). What is the probability of s

topping the truck (i) while moving at a high speed, assuming both systems must work to avoid hitting a vehicle stalled in the roadway, and (ii) while moving at a low speed, assuming either system will stop the truck in time if they function properly

Answer:

i) 0.9504

ii) 0.0452

Explanation:

Given data: reliability of hydraulic brakes= 0.96

reliability of mechanical brakes = 0.99

So the probability of stopping the truck = 0.96×0.99= 0.9504

At low speed

case: A works and B does not

= 0.96×(1-0.99) = 0.0096

case2 : B works and A does not

= 0.99×(1-0.96) = 0.0396

Therefore, probality of stopping = 0.0096+0.0396 = 0.0492
