15 F = fuel cell technology successfully marketable S = solar power technology successfully marketable F and S are statistically independent Given P(F) = 0.7; P(S) = 0.85 (i) P(energy supplied) = P(FS) = P(F) + P(S) P(F)P(S) = 0.7 + 0.85 0.7x0.85 = 0.955 P(only one source of energy available) = P(F S F S) = P(F S ) + P( F S) = (0.7)(1-0.85) + (1-0.7)(0.85) = 0.36
