Question:
The blade and the bearings are important parts of a lathe. The lathe can operate only when both of them work properly.

Assume that each lifetime is independent.
(a) What is the probability that the lathe will operate for at least five years?
(b) The lifetime of the lathe exceeds what time with 95% probability?
