(b) Suppose S1, S2 are respectively structure functions of kı-out-of-nı, and k2-out-of-n2 sys- tems with 1 <ki <n1,1 < ki < n2. All such ni+n2 components are independent, and you can construct two new systems A1, A2 with structure functions respectively as Al : max{S1, S2} and A2 : SS2. (i) Now rank the reliability of A1, A, and (ki + k2)-out-of-(nı + n2) decreasingly. (ii) Given necessary arguments to verify your ranking.
