5. Bayes' theorem provides a way to O revise prior probabilities calculate the union of events subtract intersections of events all of the above are correct
Transcribed Image Text:5. Bayes' theorem provides a way to O revise prior probabilities calculate the union of events subtract intersections of events all of the above are correct
Expert Solution
Step 1

#Bayes' theorem used in case of conditional probability i.e when prior probability of events are given then we use Bayes theorem.

Probability of event A if event B has already been done P(A/B)=P(A n B)/P(B) 

Where P(A n B ) is probability of intersection of A and B 

Hence Bayes theorem provides a way to revise prior probabilities.
