Basically degrees of freedom are related to sample size (n-1). If the df increases, it also stands that the sample size is increasing; the graph of the t-distribution will have skinnier tails, pushing the critical value towards the mean.

A water well is to be drilled in the desert where the soil is either rock, clay or sand. The probability of rock P(R)equals=0.

GaryK [48]

The tree diagram for the probability is shown below

P(Clay|Positive) is read 'Probability of Clay given the result is Positive'.

This is a case of conditional probability.

The formula for conditional probability is given as
P(Clay|Positive) = P(Clay∩Positive) ÷ P(Positive)

P(Clay∩Positive) = 0.21×0.48 = 0.1008

P(Positive) = P(Rock∩Positive) + P(Clay∩Positive) + P(Sand∩Positive)
P(Positive) = (0.53×0.53) + (0.21×0.48) + (0.26×0.75)
P(Positive) = 0.2809 + 0.1008 + 0.195
P(Positive) = 0.5767

Hence,
P(Clay|Positive) = 0.1008÷0.5767 = 0.175 (rounded to 3 decimal place)
