Section - E
Case study based questions are compulsory.

36. An electro-mechanical assembler basically makes machines or/and other assemblies that contain electronic
components like wires or microchips. Typically assemblers use blueprints, work instructions, and computer software
to manufacture whatever they are working on.

An electronic assembly consists of two sub-systems say A and B as shown below.

From previous testing procedures, the following probabilities are assumed to be known P (A fails) = 0.2 ,
P (B fails alone) = 0.15 , P (A and B fail) = 0.15.
On the basis of above information, answer the following questions.
(i) Find the probability P(B fails) and the probability P(A fails alone).
(ii) Find the probability P(whole system fail) and the probability P(A fails/B has failed).

37. In mathematics, a continuous function is a function such that a continuous variation of the argument induces a
continuous variation of the value of the function. This means that there are no abrupt changes in value, known
as discontinuities.
