2 brands (Dike and Ananas) of shoes are sold in a store. If shoe is picked up at random, Probability that it is from Dike is 0.6. Due to manufacturer s failure, some shoes contain typos in brand name. Probability that Dike shoe contain typo is 0.05. Probability that Ananas shoe contain typo is 0.025. Find out the probability that shoe selected at random will have NO typo.

Question

2 brands (Dike and Ananas) of shoes are sold in a store. If shoe is picked up at random, Probability that it is from Dike is 0.6. Due to manufacturer s failure, some shoes contain typos in brand name. Probability that Dike shoe contain typo is 0.05. Probability that Ananas shoe contain typo is 0.025. Find out the probability that shoe selected at random will have NO typo.

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given:

  • Probability that Dike shoe contain typo is 0.05.
  • Probability that Ananas shoe contain typo is 0.025.
  • Probability that it is from Dike is 0.6.

The probability that shoe selected at random will have NO typo is determined as:

Probability=P(Dike and no typo)+P(ananas and no typo)
