प्रश्न

The probability that a car being filled with petrol will also need an oil change is 0.30; the probability that it needs a new oil filter is 0.40; and the probability that both the oil and filter need changing is 0.15. If the oil had to be changed, what is the probability that a new oil filter is needed?

उत्तर

Let A be the event of changing oil, B be the event of changing oil filter.

Given P(A) = 0.30

P(B) = 0.40

P(A ∩ B) = 0.15

Probability of new oil filter B needed when the oil A changed is

P(B/A) = `("P"("B" ∪ "A"))/("P"("A"))`

= `0.15/0.30`

= `15/30`

= `1/2`

= 0.5

Read the following passage:

Recent studies suggest the roughly 12% of the world population is left-handed.

Depending upon the parents, the chances of having a left-handed child are as follows:

A :  When both father and mother are left-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 24%.
B :  When father is right-handed and mother is left-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 22%.
C :  When father is left-handed and mother is right-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 17%.
D :  When both father and mother are right-handed:
Chances of left-handed child is 9%.

Assuming that P(A) = P(B) = P(C) = P(D) = `1/4` and L denotes the event that child is left-handed.

Based on the above information, answer the following questions:

  1. Find `P(L/C)` (1)
  2. Find `P(overlineL/A)` (1)
  3. (a) Find `P(A/L)` (2)
    OR
    (b) Find the probability that a randomly selected child is left-handed given that exactly one of the parents is left-handed. (2)
