In probability, there are hint clues that you must be vigilant of. When it tells you to find the probability of event 1 'or' event 2, you must ADD their individual probabilities. When it tells you to find the probability of event 1 'and' event 2, you must MULTIPLY their individual probabilities. 

Now, you have two dices. You are asked to find the probability of getting a face of 3, 4 or 5. The probability of each face of a dice is 1/6, because there are a total of 6 faces. When you use two dices, it becomes 2/12 or still 1/6. So, the total probability of getting either 3, 4 or 5 is: 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 1/2. However, you still have to multiply this with the total probability of getting a prime numbers which are 1, 2, 3 and 5. Thus, 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 2/3

Hence, the total probability would be 1/2 * 2/3 = 1/3 or 33%

OleMash [197]

Answer:

P(A∣D) = 0.667

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

P(A) = 3P(B)

P(D|A) = 0.03

P(D|B) = 0.045

Now, we want to find P(A∣D) which is the posterior probability that a computer comes from factory A when given that it is defective.

Using Bayes' Rule and Law of Total Probability, we will get;

P(A∣D) = [P(A) * P(D|A)]/[(P(A) * P(D|A)) + (P(B) * P(D|B))]

Plugging in the relevant values, we have;

P(A∣D) = [3P(B) * 0.03]/[(3P(B) * 0.03) + (P(B) * 0.045)]

P(A∣D) = [P(B)/P(B)] [0.09]/[0.09 + 0.045]

P(B) will cancel out to give;

P(A∣D) = 0.09/0.135

P(A∣D) = 0.667
