4. Consider the following system with the assigned probabilities of malfunction for the five components. Assuming that malfunctions occur independently, what is the system does not malfunction?Solution
P(system does not malfunction) = 1 - P(system malfunctions)
P(system malfunctions) = 0.3*P(top half malfunctions)
P(top half malfunctions) = P(top left half malfunctions) + P(top right half malfunctions) - P(both top left and right halfs malfunctions)
= (0.2)*(0.1) + (0.1)*(0.3) - (0.2)*(0.1)*(0.1)*(0.3)
= 0.0494
So P(system malfunctions) = 0.3*P(top half malfunctions) = 0.3*0.0494 = 0.01482
So P(system does not malfunction) = 1 - P(system malfunctions) = 1 - 0.01482 = 0.98518
