Suppose that on any given day, there is a 20% chance that Lebron has a bad day, a 50% day that Lebron has a so-so day, and a 30% chance that Lebron has a good day. On a bad day, the probability that Lebron makes any given 3-point shot is 0.5. On a so-so day, the probability that Lebron makes any given 3-point shot is 0.7. On a good day, the probability that Lebron makes any given 3-point shot is 0.9. Suppose that tomorrow, Lebron takes a 3-point shot, and we record whether he hits or misses and what kind of day he was having. What is the probability that Lebron hits?What is the probability that if Lebron is having a bad day given that he misses a shot that day?
