Problem 4 Consider the system of components connected as depicted below. The system can be thought of as being comprised of two subsystems: one with components A and B, and the other with components C and D. Components A and B are connected in parallel, therefore that subsystem works iff either A or B works. Since C and D are connected in series, that subsystem works iff both C and D work. Components work independent of each other (that is,...
A system consists of four components connected as shown in the following diagram: Assume A, B, C, and D function independently. If the probabilities that A, B, C, and D fail are 0.11, 0.05, 0.11, and 0.17, respectively, what is the probability that the system functions? Round the answer to four decimal places.
Consider the system of components connected as in the accompanying picture. Components 1 and 2 are connected in parallel, so that subsyslern works if and onlyif either 1 or 2 works; since 3 and 4 are connected in series, that subsystem works if and only if both 3 and 4 work. If components work independently of one another and P component i works 0.74 for , 1, 2 and-0.71 for ī-3, 4 calculate P ystem works). (Round your answer to...
Question 2 (6 points) A system contains two components, A and B, connected in series, as shown in the diagram. Assume A and B function independently. For the system to function, both components must function. a. If the probability that A fails is 0.05, and the probability that B fails is 0.03, b. If both A and B have probability p of failing, what must the value of pbe so c. If three components are connected in series, and each...

Assignment 3 Independence PROBLEM 3.1 (pg 87, #78) A boiler has 5 identical relief values. The probability that any particular value will open on demand is 0.7. Let A, be the event that value i opens,i 1,2,3,4,5. Thus P(A)-0.7. Due Assuming independent operation of the valves, calculate the probability that: a. Odd numbered valves open and the rest fail to open or b. atleast one valve opens AU UA, or PROBLEM 3.2 (pg 87, #80-see diagram below) Consider the system...
Consider a system consisting of three components as pictured. The system will continue to function as long as the first component functions and either component 2 or component 3 functions. Let X1, X2, and X3 denote the lifetimes of components 1, 2, and 3, respectively. Suppose the Xi's are independent of one another and each X, has an exponential distribution with parameter λ. (a) Let Y denote the system lifetime. Obtain the cumulative distribution function of Y and differentiate to...
2) A system consists of four components connect as shown in the diagram for problem 35, page 89. Assume A, B, C, and D function independently. If the failure probabilities components A or B are both 0.01 and the probability that C or D fail are 0.02 each, what is the probability that the system functions?
A system consists of five components is connected in series as shown below. -1 42 43 44 45 As soon as one component fails, the entire system will fail. Assume that the components fail independently of one another. (a) Suppose that each of the first two components have lifetimes that are exponentially distributed with mean 107 weeks, and that each of the last three components have lifetimes that are exponentially distributed with mean 136 weeks. Find the probability that the...
