Two coins $A$ and $B$ are kept in an urn. When coin $A$ is flipped,the probability of getting a head is $1/4$,while for coin $B$ it is $3/4$. One coin is randomly chosen from this bag,tossed twice,and it falls heads on both occasions. The probability that it is coin $A$ is:

  • A
    $9/10$
  • B
    $1/4$
  • C
    $3/4$
  • D
    $1/10$

There are two coins,one unbiased with probability $\frac{1}{2}$ of getting heads and the other one is biased with probability $\frac{3}{4}$ of getting heads. $A$ coin is selected at random and tossed. It shows heads up. Then,the probability that the unbiased coin was selected is

$A$ bag contains $10$ balls out of which $k$ are red and $(10-k)$ are black,where $0 \le k \le 10$. If three balls are drawn at random without replacement and all of them are found to be black,then the probability that the bag contains $1$ red and $9$ black balls is:

$A$ shopkeeper buys a particular type of electric bulbs from three manufacturers $M_1, M_2$,and $M_3$. He buys $25 \%$ of his requirement from $M_1$,$45 \%$ from $M_2$,and $30 \%$ from $M_3$. Based on past experience,he found that $2 \%$ of type $M_3$ bulbs are defective,whereas only $1 \%$ of type $M_1$ and type $M_2$ bulbs are defective. If a bulb chosen by him at random is defective,then the probability that it was of type $M_3$ is

Let $U_1$ and $U_2$ be two urns such that $U_1$ contains $3$ white and $2$ red balls,and $U_2$ contains only $1$ white ball. $A$ fair coin is tossed. If it shows heads,$1$ ball is drawn at random from $U_1$ and transferred to $U_2$. If it shows tails,$2$ balls are drawn at random from $U_1$ and transferred to $U_2$. Now,$1$ ball is drawn at random from $U_2$. Given that the ball drawn from $U_2$ is white,what is the probability that the coin showed heads (in $/23$)?
