A certain system can experience three different types of defects. Let Ai (i = 1,2,3) denote the event that the system has a defect of type i. Suppose that the following probabilities are true. P(A1) = 0.10 P(A2) = 0.07 P(A3) = 0.06 P(A1 ∪ A2) = 0.11 P(A1 ∪ A3) = 0.13 P(A2 ∪ A3) = 0.11 P(A1 ∩ A2 ∩ A3) = 0.01 (c) Given that the system has at least one type of defect, what is the probability that it has exactly one type of defect? (Round your answer to four decimal places.) (d) Given that the system has both of the first two types of defects, what is the probability that it does not have the third type of defect? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

There are three kinds of vegetation in an ecosystem: grass (G), shrubs (S), and trees (T) (Bodine, Lenhart, and Gross 2014). Every year, 25% of grassland plots are converted to shrubs, 20% of shrub plots are converted to trees, 8% of trees are converted to shrubs, and 1% of trees are converted to grass; the other transition probabilities are 0. Calculate the probability of a plot of land have the following succession of vegetation from year to year: GSGG, taking the first state as given. (type three digits after the decimal).

Suppose that Trendy Inc. products a style of a seasonal business suit, Sit-T-Slicker, which has a cost of $500 per unit. The demand during the season for Sit-T-Slicker is generally unknown and could be either: 200, 500, 800, 1100, and 1500 units with equal probabilities. Trendy sells the Sit-T-Slicker suit for $900 per unit during its three-month season, and for $300 per unit when sold after that time. Given the above data, what is the optimal order quantity for the Sit-T-Slicker? What is expected profit? Suppose the probabilities in part a change to 0.05, 0.25, 0.40, 0.25, 0.05 for demand levels 200, 500, 800, 1100, 1500, respectively. What is the optimal order quantity and expected profit in this case? How would better information regarding the demand for the Sit-T-Slicker suit change the data provided in this problem? How would this information affect the answers to part a? Explain.
A nuclear reactor becomes unstable if both safety mechanisms A and B fail. The probabilities of failure are P(A) =1/300 and P(B) = 1/200. Also, if A has failed, B is then more likely to fail: P(B/A)=1/100. a) What is the probability of the reactor going unstable? b) If B has failed, what is the probability of the reactor going unstable?
A machine has four components, A, B, C, and D, set up in such a manner that all four parts must work for the machine to work properly. Assume the probability of one part working does not depend on the functionality of any of the other parts. Also assume that the probabilities of the individual parts working are P(A) = P(B) = 0.95, P(C) = 0.91, and P(D) = 0.96. Find the probability that at least one of the four parts will work. Round to six decimal places.

(b) At least one of A and B occurs.
1. The picture's river has floodgates at points A, B, C and D. The probabilities of each of the floodgates being open (a requirement for water to pass through) are the following: A: 94%, B : 96%, C: 91%, D: 97% The probabilities of the floodgates being open are independent. What is the probability that the water from the leftmost point in the picture will reach the sea on the right? C D B THE SEAL
Omar commutes from his home to Concordia by car. To try to get to his class on time, he tries different routes to get to Concordia but heavy traffic and construction keeps occurring randomly along his four favourite routes: routes A, B, C, and D, which he takes with probabilities of 0.4, 0.15, 0.3, and 0.15, respectively. If he takes route A then he is on time for class with a probability of 0.7, if route B then he is on time with probability 0.9, if route C then he is on time with probability 0.8, and if route D then he is on time with probability 0.6. (a)What is the probability that Omar arrives to class on time? (b) If Omar arrives to class on time, what is the probability that he took route A?
