Read the following passage:
|
Recent studies suggest the roughly 12% of the world population is left-handed.
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:
- 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)
Concept: Conditional Probability
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?
