A smart phone manufacturer has two factories (A and B). Factory A produces 40% of the smart phones and factory B produces the remaining 60%. Factory A has a defect rate of 1/80 while factory B has a defect rate of 1/60. When we find a defective smart phone, what is the probability that it is from factory A? We have found two defective smart phones. If one of them is from factory A, what is the probability that both of the phones are from factory A? We have found two defective smart phones. If at least one of them is from factory A, what is the probability that both of the phones are from factory A?

A small river is found to be polluted due to the chemical waste from two major industries, A and B. Due to the strict standards enforced by the EPA, the probability of controlling the pollutions from A and B are 0.7 and 0.85, respectively, in the next two years. It is estimated that, if only one of the industries complies with the strict standards of EPA, there is a 75 percent probability of controlling the pollution in the river to an acceptable level. (a) Find the probability of controlling the pollution in the river in the next two years. (b) If the pollution in the river is not controlled in the next two years, what is the probability that it is caused entirely by industry A?
Suppose a doctor is conducting a clinical trial to test the effectiveness of a new drug for treating a certain disease. The doctor randomly assigns 200 patients to two groups: a treatment group that receives the new drug, and a control group that receives a placebo. If 30% of the patients in the treatment group experience a full recovery from the disease, and 20% of the patients in the control group experience a full recovery, what is the probability that the new drug is truly effective, given these results?
In the sport of basketball, a player will sometimes get the opportunity to shoot two free throws without being affected by any other players in the game. Assume that, for one player, these two free throws are independent of each other. If this player makes free throws 80% of the time, what is the probability that this player will make neither free throw in the opportunity?
A manufacturing company produces two types of smartphones, A and B. 30% of the smartphones produced are type A, while 70% are type B. The defect rate for type A smartphones is 2%, while the defect rate for type B smartphones is 4%. If a customer receives a defective smartphone, what is the probability that it is of type A? Show your calculations and reasoning.
What is the probability of finding an H2O based compound with a blue label in a storage facility of 1,000 vials. We know there are 22 vials of H2O based compound in the facility, and that 800 of the total number of vials in the facility have blue labels.
A company orders the memory for their devices from two suppliers. Supplier A supplies 82% of the memory while supplier B supplies the remainder. Previous testing has shown that 1.1% of Supplier A's memory is defective and 1.9% of Supplier B's memory is defective. A randomly selected memory chip is defective. Find the probability it came from Supplier B.
A company buys microchips from three suppliers I, II and III. Supplier I has a record of providing microchips that contain 10% defective; supplier a defective rate of 5% and supplier III has a defective rate of 3%. Suppose 10%, 40% and 50% of the current supply came from suppliers I, II and III, respectively. If a randomly selected microchip is defective, what is the probability that it came from supplier II?

Two machines turn out all the paper bags produced in the plant. Machine A produces 38% of the bags and machine B produces 62% of the bags. Machine A produces defective bags 1.9% of the time and machine B produces defective bags 3.8% of the time. Given a defective bag, what is the probability that it came from machine B?
Global Airlines operates two types of jet planes: jumbo and ordinary. Of Global's air fleet, 40% of its capacity is provided on jumbo jets. Global serves two types of customers, business and tourist.

The vast majority of European vehicles sold in the world (BMW, Audi, Mercedes- Benz, etc...) receive their transmissions from either ZF Friedrichshafen AG or Continental AG. After the acquisition of TRW by ZF, ZF AG supplied 69% of transmissions, and Continental AG supplied 31%. If three European cars are randomly selected, what is the probability that 2 of the cars use ZF transmissions and 1 use Continental AG transmission? Enter your answer in percent terms (for example 12.5% must be entered as 12.5).
According to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), up to 20% of Americans contract the influenza virus each year, and approximately 3% of all births in the United States result in birth defects each year. Consider two randomly selected Americans and assume that these two randomly selected Americans are independent of each other. The probability that neither of these two randomly selected Americans will contract the influenza virus in a given year is
