Consider two components and three types of shocks. A type 1 shock causes component 1 to fail, a type 2 shock causes component 2 to fail, and a type 3 shock causes both components 1 and 2 to fail. The times until shocks 1, 2, and 3 occur are independent exponential random variables with respective rates λ1, λ2, and λ3. Let Xi denote the time at which component i fails, i = 1,2. The random variables X1,X2 are said to have a joint bivariate exponential distribution. Find P{X1s, X2t}.
