1. The probability of event A is 60%, the probability of event B is 40%, and the probability of either A or B is 65%.

What is the probability of events A and B simutaneously?

2. 50% of items are Type A, 30% are Type B, and 20% are Type C. each type is broken up into V1 and V2. Type A is 80% V1, Type B is 60% V1, and Type C is 30% V1.

If a randomly selected type is V1, what is the probability it came from Type A?

Please show your work, thank you so much ! (;

Expert Solution

so if a randomly selected type is v1 then there is 62.5 % probabilty that it came from type A.

In probability theory, a conditional probability measures the probability of an event given another event has occurred. The conditional probability of A given B, denoted by P(A|B), is defined by P(A|B) = P(A ∩ B) P(B) , provided P(B) > 0. Show that the conditional probability defined above is a probability set function. That is show that a) P(A|B) ≥ 0 [4 Marks] b) P(S|B) = 1. [4 Marks] c) P( S Ai |B) = PP(Ai |B) [4 Marks]
