A typical box of 50 transistors contains only one defective one. It is realized that among the last 32 boxes, one box has 5 defective transistors. An inspector picks a box at random, inspects two transistors from this box on a machine and discovers that one of them is defective and one is not. What is the probability that this box is the bad one? (Round your answer to four decimal places.)

A medical test is available to determine whether a patient has a certain disease. To determine the accuracy of the test, a total of 9700 people are tested. Only 100 of these people have the disease, while the other 9600 are disease free. Of the disease-free people, 9300 get a negative result, and 300 get a positive result. The 100 people with the disease all get positive results. Round your answers to four decimal places, if necessary. Find the probability that the test gives the correct result for a person who does not have the disease.

Suppose that an employee at a local company checks his watch and realizes that he has 10 minutes to get to work on time. If he leaves now and does not get stopped by any traffic lights, he will arrive at work in exactly 8 minutes. In between his house and his work there are three traffic lights, A, B, and C. Each light that stops him will cause him to arrive an additional 2 minutes later. The following table displays the probability that he is stopped by each of the three traffic lights. Assume that the probability that he is stopped by any given light is independent of the probability that he is stopped by any other light. Traffic light A Traffic light B Traffic light C ?(?)P⁡(A) ?(?)P⁡(B) ?(?)P⁡(C) 0.6 0.4 0.9 What is the probability that the employee is not late for work? (Round to 3 decimal places)
