At a plant, 20% of all the produced parts are subject to a special electronic inspection. It is known that any produced part which was inspected electronically has no defects with probability 0.95. For a part that was not inspected electronically this probability is only 0.7. A customer receives a part and find defects in it. What is the probability that this part went through an electronic inspection?

Some cyclists ride their bicycles on the wrong side of the road, the opposite direction of car traffic. Suppose that 8.5 % of cyclist ride on the wrong side of the road. Given that a serious accident involving a cyclist occurred, in 40 % of these accidents the cyclist was riding on the wrong side of the road. 6.7 % of cyclists have serious accidents. What is the probability that a cyclist will ever have a serious accident, given that they ride on the wrong side of the road?
One half of the people in the United States own individual stocks. In a random sample of 12 people, what is the probability that the number owning individual stocks is at least 4. Round to 3 decimal places.
Eswatini has the highest HIV prevalence in the world: 27.2% (2019 value) of this country's population is infected with HIV. The ELISA test is one of the first and most accurate tests for HIV. For those who carry HIV, the ELISA test is 99.7% accurate. For those who do not carry HIV, the test is 92.6% accurate. If an individual from Swaziland has tested positive, what is the probability that he carries HIV? (please round to 4 decimal places)Show the Bayes’ theorem computation P(HIV|+) = ?

On the average the traffic pattern at an intersection is as follows: • Twice as many cars go through as the number of vans, bicycles and trucks combined. • Twice as many vans go through as the number of bicycles and trucks combined. • Half as many trucks go through as the number of bicycles. Calculate the probability that the next vehicle to go through is a truck or a car. (19/27)
