Events A1,A2, and A3 form a partition of sample space
S with Pr(A1)=3/7, Pr(A2)=3/7, Pr(A3)=1/7. E is an event in S with
Pr(E|A1)=3/5, Pr(E|A2)=2/5, and Pr(E|A3)=3/5.
What is Pr(E)?
What is Pr(A2|E)?
What is Pr(E')?
What is Pr(A2'|E')?
We are given
P(A1)=3/7
P(A2)=3/7
P(A3)=1/7
P(E|A1)=3/5
P(E|A2)=2/5
P(E|A3)=3/5
(1)
P(E)=P(A1) P(E|A1)+P(A2) P(E|A2) +P(A3) P(E|A3)
P(E)=0.5143
(2)
(3)
(4)
FOR THE ABOVE FORMULA WE CALCULATE
P(A2')=1-P(A2) = 1-3/7=4/7
P(E')=0.4857
P(E'|A2')=0.4
