Find the probability that none of the three bulbs in a set of traffic lights will have to be replaced during the first 1200 hours of operation if the lifetime X of a bulb (in thousands of hours) is a random variable with probability density function f(x) = 6[0.25 − (x − 1.5)2] when 1 ≤ x ≤ 2 and f(x) = 0 otherwise. You should assume that the lifetimes of different bulbs are independent.
