To solve the problem, we will use Bayes' theorem, which allows us to find the probability of an event based on prior knowledge of conditions related to the event. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Define Events**: - Let \( B_1 \) be the event that the machine is correctly set up. - Let \( B_2 \) be the event that the machine is incorrectly set up. - Let \( A \) be the event that the machine produces 2 acceptable items. ...
