Question

When an avocado is selected at random from those delivered to a food store, the probability that it is ripe is 0.12, the probability that it is bruised is 0.054, and the probability that it is ripe and bruised is 0.019. So, rounding your answers to the nearest thousandth where necessary, find the probability that an avocado randomly selected from those delivered to the store is i. Not bruised ii. Ripe given that is bruised ii. Bruised given that it is ripe.

Answer 1

I) The probability that it is not bruised is 1-0.054=0.946

Hint for ii and iii) use Bayes Theorem
