Answer:

P( B | A) will actually be the probability of the polygraph test being wrong.

Step-by-step explanation:

The event A represents the event that the subject is telling the truth.

The event B represents  the event when he fails the polygraph test, which is indicative of the fact that he is lying.

The notation P( B | A) describes the probability that the subject fails the polygraph test given that he is actually telling the truth.

So in retrospect P( B | A) will actually be the probability of the polygraph test being wrong.

Three workers at a fast food restaurant pack the take-out chicken dinners. John packs 45% of the dinners, Mary packs 25% of the
Gekata [30.6K]

The probability that Mary packed the dinner is 0.15625

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The probability of an event is defined as the possibility of an event occurring against sample space.

Let us tackle the problem.

This problem is about Conditional Probability.

in general, the formula we will use is as follows :

\large {\boxed {P ( A | B ) = P ( A \bigcap B ) \div P ( B )} }

Let:

The probability of John that packs the dinners without salt packet is P(J)

The probability of Mary that packs the dinners without salt packet is P(M)

The probability of Sue that packs the dinners without salt packet is P(S)

Then :

P(J) = 45\% \times 4\% = 0.018

P(M) = 25\% \times 2\% = 0.005

P(S) = 30\% \times 3\% = 0.009

If I find there is not salt in my purchased dinner, then the probability that Mary packed my dinner is :

Probability = \frac{P(M)}{P(J) + P(M) + P(S)}

Probability = \frac{0.005}{0.018 + 0.005 + 0.009}

Probability = \frac{0.005}{0.032}

\large {\boxed {Probability = 0.15625} }
