Probability that Backup for Component 1 & Switch both will function (Use Rule 1): XxX= Probability that Backup for Component 2 & Switch both will function (Use Rule 1): Xx X = Probability that Component 1 or (Backup for Component 1 & Switch) will function (Use 1 X + (1-X)x X] Probability that Component 2 or (Backup for Component 2 & Switch) will function (Use X + (1-X)x X] Rule 2): Rule 2): Probability that both components will function, i.e., the system will function (Use Rule 1): X+X= PROBLEMS 1. Consider the following system: .90 .90 Determine the probability that the system will operate under each of these conditions: a. The system as shown. b. Each system component has a backup with a probability of .90 and a switch that is 100 percent reliable. c. Backups with 90 probability and a switch that is 99 percent reliable
