Coloured balls are distributed in four boxes as shown in the following table:
Box Black White Red Blue
$I$$3$$4$$5$$6$
$II$$2$$2$$2$$2$
$III$$1$$2$$3$$1$
$IV$$4$$3$$1$$5$

$A$ box is selected at random and then a ball is randomly drawn from the selected box. If the colour of the ball is black,what is the probability that the ball drawn is from box $III$?

  • A
    $0.165$
  • B
    $0.185$
  • C
    $0.205$
  • D

$A$ doctor assumes that a patient has one of three diseases $d_1, d_2,$ or $d_3$. Before any test,he assumes an equal probability for each disease. He carries out a test that will be positive with probability $0.7$ if the patient has disease $d_1$,$0.5$ if the patient has disease $d_2$,and $0.8$ if the patient has disease $d_3$. Given that the outcome of the test was positive,what is the probability that the patient has disease $d_2$?

There are two dice $A$ and $B$. Die $A$ has $4$ red and $2$ white faces,and die $B$ has $2$ red and $4$ white faces. $A$ coin is tossed once. If it shows head,die $A$ is rolled; if it shows tail,die $B$ is rolled. If the probability that die $A$ is used is $\left(\frac{32}{33}\right)$ given that red turns up every time in the first $n$ throws,then $n=$

In an entrance test,there are multiple-choice questions. There are four possible answers to each question,of which one is correct. The probability that a student knows the answer to a question is $9/10$. If he gets the correct answer to a question,then the probability that he was guessing is:

$A$ computer producing factory has only two plants $T_1$ and $T_2$. Plant $T_1$ produces $20 \%$ and plant $T_2$ produces $80 \%$ of the total computers produced. $7 \%$ of computers produced in the factory turn out to be defective. It is known that $P(\text{defective} | T_1) = 10 P(\text{defective} | T_2)$. $A$ computer produced in the factory is randomly selected and it is not defective. Then the probability that it is produced in plant $T_2$ is
