I have seen the demonstration of beta distribution in youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3vBBh0SDpqM) at the last B(m,n) is calculated as: (n-1)!(m-1)!/(m+n-1)!.

The question that I ask is:

This last result is obtained for m and n as integers ? if these last ones are réel, what will us obtained for the beta distribution.

I suppose that it will gamma distribution but i'm not sur.
company A is determining whether it should submit a bid for a new shopping center. In the past, their main competitor, company B, has submitted bids 90% of the time. if company b does not bid on a job, the probability that company A will get the job is 0.20. if company B bids on job, the probability that company A will the job is 0.15. if company A gets the job, what is the probability that company B did not bid. What is the probability that company A will get the job?
A disease is present in 22% of a population and is not present in the remaining
78%. An imperfect clinical test successfully detects the disease and with
probability 0.70. Thus if a person has the disease in the serious form, the
probability is 0.70 that the test will be positive and it is 0.30 if the test is negative.
Moreover among the unaffected persons, the probability that the test will be
positive is 0.05. (5)
(i) A person selected at random from the population is given the test and the
result is positive. What is the probability that the test will be positive is
0.05.
(ii) What is the probability that the test correctly detects cancer?
