Joon wants to determine whether his San Jose oil field will yield oil. He has hired a geologist to run tests on the field. If there is oil in the field, there is a 95% chance that the test will indicate oil. If the field contains no oil, there is a 5% chance that the test will indicate oil. If the test indicates that there is no oil in the field, what is the probability that the field contains oil? Before the test, Joon believes that there is a 10% chance that the field will yield oil.
There was a baseball game between Oscar and Gabe. The chance of Oscar winning is 3/5 (60%). The chance of Gabe winning is 2/5 (40%). This game wasn't a one game competition. It's the best of 5 series. This means the first person to win 3 games is the overall champion. What's the probability (% is best) that Oscar is the champion? Don't answer this question as Oscar with a 60% chance and Gabe as a 40% chance. Also, don’t use the equation for finding multiple events for probability.

Dash and Lily Corporation wanted to raise funds for the poor. The first prize for a raffle is S500,000 (with a probability of 0.001) and the second prize is S250,000 (with a probability of0.003). What is a fair price to pay for a single ticket in this raffle?
A museum wonders whether it should enter an insurance contract to prevent loss from thief. Of course, not entering any contract is also an option. The total worth of the museum pieces is estimated to be around $20,000. From statistics, around 3% chance the museum will be visited by thief in the coming year. In case the museum is broken, 60% chance the losses would be 10% of the total worth, while 40% chance the losses would be 30% of the total worth. Company A's policy costs $140 a year but guarantees to refund all losses due to theft. Company B's policy is only S100 a year, but the museum has to pay the first S60 of any loss themselves. Assume that there will be at most one theft a year. Draw the decision tree to minimize expected loss and decide what to do. Show your calculations.

You are interested in the number of people that will visit your restaurant in the noon hour. Historically, there is a 10% chance that more than 10 customers will visit, a 30% chance that more than 8 customers will visit, a 50% chance that more than 6 customers will visit, a 80% chance that more than 4 customers will visit, and a 95% chance that at least 2 customers will visit during the noon hour. What is the probability that 4 or less customers will visit the restaurant -- the number required to break even financially for the day?Express your answer as a percent value. So if your answer is 100% for example, enter 100. Round your answer to the nearest percent.

80% of students pass Chemistry 101. Knowing this. Manuel didn't study for the midterm and ended up failing the midterm. While students who fail the midterm can go on to pass the course, it is a lot harder. Among students who pass the course, only 5% failed the midterm, whereas that percentage goes up to 80% among students who fail the course. Based on this evidence, what is the probability that Manuel will pass Chemistry 101, expressed as a percentage rounded to the nearest integer? (Your answer should be a number between 0 and 100 with no percentage sign.) Your Answer: Answer
You will take either a basket weaving class or a philosophy class, depending on what your advisor decides. You estimate that the probability of getting an A in basket weaving is 0.35 (it is a hard class), while in philosophy your probability of getting an A is 0.84. However, your major is straw construction, and the chance of your advisor choosing the philosophy class is only 40%. What is the probability that you get an A? The probability that you get an A is (Give the exact simplified probability.)
