Answer:
(E) 0.83
Step-by-step explanation:
We will solve it using conditional probability.
Let A be the event that a TV show is successful.
P(A) = 0.5
A' be event that the show is unsuccessful
P(A') =0.5
Let B be the event that the response was favorable
P(B) = 0.6
Let B' be the event that the response was unfavorable/
P(B') = 0.4
P(A∩B) = 0.5 and P(A∩B') = 0.3
We need to find new show will be successful if it receives a favorable response.
P(A/B) =
= 0.5/0.6
= 0.833
