Problem

A mobile phone must pass two independent hardware tests H1H_1 and H2H_2 followed by a software test SS. Given P(H1)=0.9P(H_1)=0.9, P(H2)=0.95P(H_2)=0.95, and P(S∣H1∩H2)=0.8P(S\mid H_1 \cap H_2)=0.8, determine the probability that a phone passes all three tests. (a) 0.8550.855 (b) 0.7600.760 (c) 0.6840.684 (d) 0.7960.796
