Integrated circuits undergo two tests. A mechanical test determines whether pins have the correct spacing, and an electrical test checks the relationship of outputs to inputs. We assume that electrical failures and mechanical failures occur independently. Our information about circuit production tells us that mechanical failures occur with probability 0.05 and electrical failures occur with probability 0.2. Find the probability that the mechanical test fails while the electrical test will be accepted and the probability when mechanical test will be accepted while electrical test fails?

In women’s tennis, a player must win 2 out of 3 sets to win a match. If a player wins the first 2 sets, she wins the match and the third set is not played. Player V and Player M will compete in a match. Player V and Player M have competed against each other many times. Historical data show that each player is equally likely to win the first set. If Player V wins the first set, the probability that she will win the second set is 0.60. If Player V loses the first set, the probability that she will lose the second set is 0.70. If Player V wins exactly one of the first two sets, the probability that she will win the third set is 0.45. What is the probability that Player V will win a match against Player M?
