Three persons A, B and C apply for a job of Manager in a Private Company. Chances of their selection (A, B and C) are in the ratio 1 : 2 :4. The probabilities that A, B and C can introduce changes to improve profits of the company are 0.8, 0.5 and 0.3, respectively. If the change does not take place, find the probability that it is due to the appointment of C
Concept: Bayes’ Theorem
If A and B are two independent events such that `P(barA∩ B) =2/15 and P(A ∩ barB) = 1/6`, then find P(A) and P(B).

There are three coins. One is a two-headed coin (having head on both faces), another is a biased coin that comes up heads 75% of the times and the third is also a biased coin that comes up tails 40% of the time. One of the three coins is chosen at random and tossed and it shows heads. What is the probability that it was the two-headed coin?

Often it is taken that a truthful person commands, more respect in the society. A man is known to speak the truth 4 out of 5 times. He throws a die and reports that it is a six. Find the probability that it is actually a six.
Do you also agree that the value of truthfulness leads to more respect in the society?

Three persons A, B and C apply for a job a manager in a private company. Chances of their selection are in the ratio 1:2:4. The probability that A, B and C can introduce chances to increase the profits of a company are 0.8, 0.5 and 0.3 respectively. If increase in the profit does not take place, find the probability that it is due to the appointment of A.
Concept: Bayes’ Theorem
The probability that A hits the target is `1/3` and the probability that B hits it, is `2/5`. If both try to hit the target independently, find the probability that the target is hit.

A shopkeeper sells three types of flower seeds A1, A2, A3. They are sold is the form of a mixture, where the proportions of these seeds are 4:4:2 respectively. The germination rates of the three types of seeds are 45%, 60% and 35% respectively.

Based on the above information:
- Calculate the probability that a randomly chosen seed will germinate.
- Calculate the probability that the seed is of type A2, given that a randomly chosen seed germinates.

- Find `P(L/C)` (1)
- Find `P(overlineL/A)` (1)
- (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)

In answering a question on a multiple choice test, a student either knows the answer or guesses. Let `3/5` be the probability that he knows the answer and `2/5` be the probability that he guesses. Assuming that a student who guesses at the answer will be correct with probability `1/3`. What is the probability that the student knows the answer, given that he answered it correctly?
