Answer:
Option A 0.1698
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that Jason has a chance for getting oil as 45%
THe kit he buys show accurate result with 80% probability
Let A1- Event that the land has oil
A2 - Event that the land has no oil
B- The test gives negative result
A1 and A2 are mutually exclusive and exhaustive
P(A1) = 0.45 and P(A2) =0.55
Hence we can use Baye theorem
Then P(B) = P(A1B)+P(A2B)=
Reqd prob =P(A1/B) =
