An electronic assembly consists of two subsystems,$A$ and $B$. From previous testing procedures,the following probabilities are known:
$P(A \text{ fails}) = 0.2$
$P(B \text{ fails alone}) = 0.15$
$P(A \text{ and } B \text{ fail}) = 0.15$
Evaluate the probability $P(A \text{ fails alone})$.

  • A
    $0.05$
  • B
    $0.10$
  • C
    $0.15$
  • D
    $0.20$
