Question

I need assistence with part D

A certain system can experience three different types of defects. Let A, (i = 1,2,3) denote the event that the system has a defect of type i. Suppose that
the following probabilities are true.
P(A,) = 0.15
P(A, U A2) = 0.17
P(A, U A3) = 0.15
P(A,) = 0.10
P(A, U A3) = 0.18
P(A, N A, N A) = 0.02
P(A,) = 0.08
(a) What is the probability that the system does not have a type 1 defect?
0.85
(b) What is the probability that the system has both type 1 and type 2 defects?
0.08
(c) What is the probability that the system has both type 1 and type 2 defects but not a type 3 defect?
0.06
(d) What is the probability that the system has at most two of these defects?

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that 

Let Ai (i=1,2,3) denote the event that the system has a defect of type i 

P(A1)=0.15 , 

P(A2)=0.10

P(A3)=0.08

P(A1A2A3)=0.02

P(A1UA2)=0.17

P(A2UA3)=0.18

P(A2UA3)=0.15

We have to find the probability that the system has at most two of these defects
