In a manufacturing company,three machines $A$,$B$ and $C$ respectively produce $20 \%$,$30 \%$ and $50 \%$ of the total product. The defective products from $A$,$B$ and $C$ are respectively $5 \%$,$3 \%$ and $2 \%$. If an article produced by the company is selected at random and is found to be defective,then the probability that it is produced by machine $B$ is

  • A
    $\frac{10}{29}$
  • B
    $\frac{8}{29}$
  • C
    $\frac{9}{29}$
  • D
    $\frac{11}{29}$

$A$ laboratory blood test is $99 \%$ effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in fact,present. However,the test also yields a false positive result for $0.5 \%$ of the healthy persons tested (that is,if a healthy person is tested,then,with probability $0.005,$ the test will imply he has the disease). If $0.1 \%$ of the population actually has the disease,what is the probability that a person has the disease given that his test result is positive?

Bag $I$ contains $3$ red and $4$ black balls and Bag $II$ contains $4$ red and $5$ black balls. One ball is transferred from Bag $I$ to Bag $II$ and then a ball is drawn from Bag $II$. The ball so drawn is found to be red in colour. Find the probability that the transferred ball is black.

$A$ man is known to speak the truth $2$ out of $3$ times. If he throws a die and reports that it is $6$,then the probability that it is actually $5$ is:

There are three bags $B_1, B_2$ and $B_3$. The bag $B_1$ contains $5$ red and $5$ green balls,$B_2$ contains $3$ red and $5$ green balls,and $B_3$ contains $5$ red and $3$ green balls. Bags $B_1, B_2$ and $B_3$ have probabilities $\frac{3}{10}, \frac{3}{10}$ and $\frac{4}{10}$ respectively of being chosen. $A$ bag is selected at random and a ball is chosen at random from the bag. Then which of the following options is/are correct?
$(1)$ Probability that the selected bag is $B_3$ and the chosen ball is green equals $\frac{3}{20}$
$(2)$ Probability that the chosen ball is green equals $\frac{39}{80}$
$(3)$ Probability that the chosen ball is green,given that the selected bag is $B_3$,equals $\frac{3}{8}$
$(4)$ Probability that the selected bag is $B_3$,given that the chosen ball is green,equals $\frac{4}{13}$
