P A B'
Probability that a household has the plan to buy and actually purchased. Probability that a household has actually purchased although there was no plan to buy. Probability that a household has not actually purchased although that there was a plan to buy big-screen TV set. Probability that a household has actually purchased given that there was a plan to buy big-screen TV set. Probability that a household has actually purchased given that there was no plan to buy big-screen TV set.

Example
Only 1 in 400 bulbs produced by Factory A is defective and 3 out of 600 bulbs produced by Factory B are defective
Factory A
ND= 99.75%=0.9975 D=0.25%=0.0025 Factory B, ND=99.5%=0.995 D=.5%=0.005 If one randomly tested bulb is defective, what is the probability that it is produced by Factory B?
Examine probabilities
P(A) = 0.40 P(B)= 0.60 P(ND|A) = .9975, P(D|A)= 0.0025 P(ND|B) = .995, P(D|B)= 0.005

3. An oil company purchased an option on land in Palawan. Preliminary geologic studies assigned the following prior probabilities. P(high-quality oil) P(medium-quality oil) =0.50 =0.20
P( no high-quality oil or no medium-quality oil) = 0.75 P(no oil) Required: a) b) c) d) What is the probability of finding oil? What is the probability of finding no high-quality oil? What is the probability of finding no medium-quality oil? What is the probability of finding no oil and medium-quality oil? =0.30
4. Of the gadgets produced by company A 30% are black color, while 20% of the number of gadgets manufactured by company B are non-black and 15% of the number of gadgets produced by company C are colored black. If one gadget is selected at random, a. What is the probability that it is black given that the gadget is produced by company B? b. What is that probability that the gadget was produced by company B given that it is black color?
