Consider the following for the two (02) items that follow:
The probabilities that , and become managers are , and respectively. The probabilities that bonus scheme will be introduced if , and become managers are , and respectively.
What is the probability that the bonus scheme will be introduced?
The probabilities that , and become managers are , and respectively. The probabilities that bonus scheme will be introduced if , and become managers are , and respectively.
What is the probability that the bonus scheme will be introduced?
Options
- A
- B
- C
- D
Correct answer
C.
Step-by-step solution
Let , , and be the events that , , and become managers respectively.
The given probabilities are:
Let be the event that the bonus scheme is introduced. The conditional probabilities are:
Using the law of total probability, the probability that the bonus scheme will be introduced is:
Substituting the given values:
\left(\dfrac{3}{10} \times \dfrac{4}{9}\right) + P(S) = P(S) = P(S) = P(S) = P(S) =
