A bag manufacturer invested in a new production machine to
improve its manufacturing productivity. 60% of all bags are
produced by the new machine and the remaining bags by the old
machine. The defect rates of the bags obtained from quality tests
yields the following results
Number of products tested
New machine: 150
Old machine: 200
Number of defects:
New machine: 30
Old machine: 60

There are two bags A and B. A contains n white and 2
black balls. B contains 2 white and n black balls. One of the two
bags is selected at random and two balls are drawn from it without
replacement. If both the balls drawn are white and the probability
that the bag A was used to draw the balls is 6/7. Find the value of

q1)Suppose that we have two bags each containing black and white
balls. One bag contains two times as many white balls as black
balls. The other bag contains two times as many black balls as
white. Suppose we choose one of these bags at random. For this bag
we select five balls at random, replacing each ball after it has
been selected. The result is that we find all balls are white
balls. What is the probability that we were...
