Solution.
Given the following events:
RR=AllsideRed
BB=AllsideBlack
RB=RedandBlackside
R=Upturnedsideofthechosencardisred.
Based on the information given in the equation we have:
P(R∣RB)=21
P(RB)=31
P(BB)=31
P(RR)=31
P(R/RR)=1
P(R/BB)=0
Using the results we have to find P(RB/R)
Se we can say:
P(RB∣R)=P(R)P(RB∩NR)
=P(R∣RB)P(RB)+P(R∣BB)P(BB)P(R∣RR)P(RR)P(R∣RB)P(RB)
By substituting values we get:
P(RB∣R)=(21×31)+(0×31)+(1×31)21×31=31=0.3333
The required probability is =31=0.3333
