प्रश्न

In a factory, machine A produces 30% of the total output, machine B produces 25% and the machine C produces the remaining output. If defective items produced by machines AB and C are 1%, 1.2%, 2% respectively. Three machines working together produce 10000 items in a day. An item is drawn at random from a day's output and found to be defective. Find the probability that it was produced by machine B?

उत्तर

Let AE1E2 and E3 denote the events that the item is defective, machine A is chosen, machine B is chosen and machine C is chosen, respectively.

\[\therefore P\left( E_1 \right) = \frac{30}{100}\]
\[ P\left( E_2 \right) = \frac{25}{100} \]
\[ P\left( E_3 \right) = \frac{45}{100}\]
\[\text{ Now } , \]
\[P\left( A/ E_1 \right) = \frac{1}{100}\]
\[P\left( A/ E_2 \right) = \frac{1 . 2}{100}\]
\[P\left( A/ E_3 \right) = \frac{2}{100}\]
\[\text{ Using Bayes' theorem, we get } \]
\[\text{ Required probability } = P\left( E_1 /A \right) = \frac{P\left( E_1 \right)P\left( A/ E_1 \right)}{P\left( E_1 \right)P\left( A/ E_1 \right) + P\left( E_2 \right)P\left( A/ E_2 \right) + P\left( E_3 \right)P\left( A/ E_3 \right)}\]
\[ = \frac{\frac{30}{100} \times \frac{1}{100}}{\frac{30}{100} \times + \times \frac{1}{100}\frac{25}{100}\frac{1 . 2}{100} + \frac{45}{100} \times \frac{2}{100}}\]
\[ = \frac{30}{30 + 30 + 90} = \frac{30}{150} = 0 . 2\]

In answering a question on a multiple choice test, a student either knows the answer or guesses. Let 3/4 be the probability that he knows the answer and 1/4 be the probability that he guesses. Assuming that a student who guesses at the answer will be correct with probability 1/4 What is the probability that the student knows the answer given that he answered it correctly?


A laboratory blood test is 99% effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive result for 0.5% of the healthy person tested (that is, if a healthy person is tested, then, with probability 0.005, the test will imply he has the disease). If 0.1 percent of the population actually has the disease, what is the probability that a person has the disease given that his test result is positive?

(Activity):

Mr. X goes to office by Auto, Car, and train. The probabilities him travelling by these modes are `2/7, 3/7, 2/7` respectively. The chances of him being late to the office are `1/2, 1/4, 1/4` respectively by Auto, Car, and train. On one particular day, he was late to the office. Find the probability that he travelled by car.

Solution: Let A, C and T be the events that Mr. X goes to office by Auto, Car and Train respectively. Let L be event that he is late.

Given that P(A) = `square`, P(C) = `square`

P(T) = `square`

P(L/A) = `1/2`, P(L/C) = `square` P(L/T) = `1/4`

P(L) = P(A ∩ L) + P(C ∩ L) + P(T ∩ L)

`="P"("A")*"P"("L"//"A") + "P"("C")*"P"("L"//"C") + "P"("T")*"P"("L"//"T")`

`= square * square + square * square + square * square`

`= square + square + square`

`= square`

`"P"("C"//"L") = ("P"("L" ∩ "C"))/("P"("L"))`

= `("P"("C") * "P"("L"//"C"))/("P"("L"))`

`= (square * square)/square`

`= square`
