A specific article is produced by machines M1, M2, M3 and M4. The probability that a random articleis produced by M1, M2 and M3 is 0.2, 0.3 and 0.1 respectively. The probability for each machine to producedefective articles is given as M1 = 0.03, M2 = 0.02, M3 = 0.04 and M4 = 0.01. What is the probability that arandom article was made by M4, given that it is non-defective?
Urn A contains five white balls and three black balls. Urn B contains seven white balls and four black balls. A ball is drawn from Urn A and then transferred to Urn B. A ball is then drawn from Urn B. What is the probability that the transferred ball was black given that the second ball drawn was black? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)
A company prices its tornado insurance using the following assumptions: • In any calendar year, there can be at most one tornado. • In any calendar year, the probability of a tornado is 0.11. • The number of tornadoes in any calendar year is independent of the number of tornados in any other calendar year.
