A box of 100 gaskets contains 10 gaskets with type A defects. 5 gaskets with type 18 defects and 2 gaskets with both types of defects. Find the probabilities that (i) a gasket to be drawn has a type B defect under the condition that it has a type A defect, and (it) a gasket to be drawn has no type B defect under the condition that it has no typed A defect

Q4/ Suppose there are two machines (A, B) in a factory, both producing chairs. Machine A produce twenty percent of their chairs and Machine B produce eighty percent of their chairs. fifteen percent of the chairs come from Machine A are defective and ten percent of the chairs come from Machine B are defective. If a chair is chosen randomly and found to be defective, what is the probability that it came from machine B?
Hamza comes to office located in Islamabad through different modes of transport. From his past data, itis known that the probability of him coming through car, bus, motorbike and rickshaw are respectively 3/10,1/5,1/10,2/5The probabilities that he will arrive to his office late are 1/4,1/3,1/12 if he comes bycar, bus and motorbike. Interestingly, he will not be late if he comes by rickshaw. Suppose, he arriveslate on Friday. What is the probability that he came by car?
Urn A contains x red marbles and y white marbles, and urn B contains z red marbles and v white marbles. (i) If an urn is selected at random and a marble drawn, what is the probability that the marble is red?

Suppose, in an airport, there are three runways. In the ideal situation, the probabilities, 2/9, 1/6, and 11/18 represent the likelihood that individual runways 1, 2 and3 respectively are accessed by a randomly arriving commercial jet. If 6 airplanes are arriving at the airport then what is the probability that there are 2, 1, and 3 airplanes are accessed by runway 1, runway 2, and runway respectively.
Consider two urns: Urn-1 contains 3 red, 2 black and 4 white balls while Urn-2 contains 4 red, 4 black and 3 white balls. An urn is randomly selected with equal chances of it being Urn-1 or Urn-2, and then a ball is picked at random from the selected urn. (a) Find the probability that either a white or a red ball is picked? Your answer correct up to four decimal places. (b) If the picked ball is NOT black, find the probability it came from Urn-2? Your answer correct up to four decimal places.
A nuclear reactor becomes unstable if both safety mechanisms A and B fail. The probabilities of failure are P(A) =1/300 and P(B) = 1/200. Also, if A has failed, B is then more likely to fail: P(B/A)=1/100. a) What is the probability of the reactor going unstable? b) If B has failed, what is the probability of the reactor going unstable?
