Homework 2 Solution 1. Consider the diagram of the electronic system‚ which shows the probabilities of the system components operating properly. The entire system operates if assembly III and at least one of the components in each of assemblies I and II operates. Assume that the components of each assembly operate independently and that the assemblies operate independently. What is the probability that the entire system operates? 0.9 0.9 0.8 0.8 0.7 I II III 0.95 Solution: P = [1-(1-0.9)*(1-0
