Answer and Step-by-step explanation:
a) probability of selling a medium, long sleeved printed shirt, P(M ∩LS ∩PR) = 0.07, directly from the table of probabilities
b) probability that the next shirt sold is a medium printed shirt, (M ∩Pr) = P(M,Pr,LS) + P(M,Pr,SS) = 0.07+0.10 = 0.17
c) probability that the next shirt is a short sleeved shirt, P(SS) = sum of 9 probabilities in Short Sleeved shirt table = 0.58
probability that the next shirt is a long sleeved shirt, P(LS) = 1 - 0.58 = 0.42 or add up the total probabilities in the long sleeved shirt table, P(LS) = sum of 9 probabilities in the long sleeved shirt table = 0.42
d) probability that the next shirt is a medium, P(M) = P(M,SS) + P(M,LS) = (0.07+0.10+0.12) + (0.06+0.07+0.07) = 0.49
probability that the next shirt sold is a print, P(Pr) = P(Pr,SS) + P(Pr,LS) = (0.02+0.10+0.07) + (0.02+0.07+0.02) = 0.40
e) probability that the shirt sold is a medium given that the shirt just sold was a short-sleeved plaid, P(M|SS,PL) = (P(M,SS,PL))/P(SS,PL) = 0.07/(0.04+0.07+0.03) = 0.5
f) probability that the shirt sold is short sleeved given that the shirt just sold was a medium plaid, P(SS|M,PL) = (P(M,SS,PL))/P(M,PL) = 0.07/(0.07+0.06) = 0.53846 = 0.54
probability that the shirt sold is long sleeved given that the shirt just sold was a medium plaid, P(LS|M,PL) = (P(M,LS,PL))/P(M,PL) = 0.06/(0.07+0.06) = 0.462 = 0.46
