Q4/ A sample of 20 specimens of soil was tested under shear, and water absorption tests. 8 of them failed in shear test, while 5 was failed in water absorption test and 2 failed in both. Find the following probabilities if a random sample is selected? 1-Failed in one of them at least? 2-Failed in one of them at most? 3-If it is failed in shear to be failed in absorption? 4-If it is good in absorption to be bad in shear?
