1. The Beta II computer's electronic processing unit contains 50 components in series. The average reliability of each component is 99.0%. Using Figure, determine the overall reliability of the processing unit.
2. A testing process at Boeing Aircraft has 400 components in series. The average reliability of each component is 99.5%. Use Figure to find the overall reliability of the whole testing process.
3. A new aircraft control system is being designed that must be 98% reliable. This system consists of three components in series. If all three of the components are to have the same level of reliability, what level of reliability is required?
