Consider purchasing a system of audio components consisting of a receiver, a pair of speakers, and a CD player. Let A, be the event that the receiver functions properly throughout the warranty period, A, be the event that the speakers function properly throughout the warranty period, and A, be the event that the CD player functions properly throughout the warranty period. Suppose that these events are (mutually) independent with P(A,) = 0.94, P(A,) = 0.97, and P(A,) = 0.90. (Round your answers to four decimal places.) (a) What is the probability that all three components function properly throughout the warranty period? (b) What is the probability that at least one component needs service during the warranty period? (c) What is the probability that all three components need service during the warranty period?

Events A and B of a probability space (Q,F,P) are independent. The probability that the both 3 and the probability that at least one event occurs is 25 17 . Determine P(A) occur is 25 and P(B).
The manager at the local auto shop has found that the probability that a car brought into the shop requires an oil change is 0.65, the probability that a car brought into the shop requires brake repair is 0.35, and the probability that a car requires both an oil change and brake repair is 0.24. For a car brought into the shop, determine the probability that the car will require an oil change or brake repair. The probability that the car requires an oil change or brake repair is (Type an integer or a decimal.)

A circuit operates as long as there is a functional path, which does not include any dysfunctional (broken) switches on its path, between 1 and 2. The probabilities that the switches A, B, and Y are not functioning or broken (Failure, F) are 12%, (22)%, and (13)%, respectively (as shown in the figure below). The switches function independently. What is the probability that the circuit operates successfully (Success, S) from 1 to 2?
Let A and B be two events with P(A and Bc) = 1. Find P(B). Recall that Bc denotes the complement of the event B.
A traveling salesman can be found at one of four cities (C1,C2,C3,C4) at any given time.His probability of being at these cities are P(C1) = 1/8, P(C2) = 1/8, P(C3) = 1/4, P(C4) =1/2. He always carries his cellphone with him. Let X be the event that his cellphone hascoverage. The conditional probabilities that his cell phone has coverage given what city heis at are as following: P(X|C1) = 1/2, P(X|C2) = 1, P(X|C3) = 3/4, P(X|C4) = 3/4.a. Given that today his cellphone has coverage, what is the probability that he is at city C2?b. Let Y be the event that his cellphone is at least 70% charged. He usually remembers torecharge his cell phone every evening so the probability that his cell phone is at least70% charged at any given time is 4/5. Events X and Y are independent. What is theprobability that his cellphone is less than 70% charged AND out of coverage at the sametime?
