Q1)
Consider two events P and Q.
a. Write the general formula used to calculate the probability
that either event P occurs or Q occurs or both occur.
b. How does this formula change if:
i. Events P and Q are disjoint (i.e., mutually exclusive of each
other).
ii. Events P and Q are nondisjoint events that are statistically
independent of each other.
iii. Events P and Q are nondisjoint events that are
statistically dependent of each other.
Q2)

Question 1 (20 points: Events, counting, and properties f probabniny Consider the network shown below. There are two kinds of links in the network. Each link of kind o-p +0 fails with probability p and that of kind O 4+0 fails with probability q. Each link is assumed to fail independently of the other. We say that a path is successful if no link in the path fails. For example, the path S-B-T succeeds if none of the links S...
