If a machine is correctly set up, it produces 90% acceptable items. If it is incorrectly set up, it produces only 40% acceptable items. Past experience shows that 80% of the set ups are correctly done. If after a certain set up, the machine produces 2 acceptable items, find the probability that the machine is correctly setup.

Three machines E_1, E_2, E_3 in a certain factory produce 50%, 25% and 25% respectively of the total daily output of electric tubes. It is known that 4% of the tubes produced by each of machines E_1 and E_2 are defective, and that 5% of those produced on E_3 are defective. If one tube is picked up at random from a day's production, calculate the probability that it is defective.

ln a tape recorder factory, three machines A, B and C produced 40%, 30% and 20% of total production. The percentage of the defective output of these machines are 2%, 3% and 4% respectively.

A factory has two machines A and B. Past record shows that machine A produced 60% of the items of output and machine B produced 40% of the items. Further, 2% of the items produced by machine A and 1% produced by machine B were defective. All the items are put into one stockpile and then one item is chosen at random from this and is found to be defective. What is the probability that it was produced by machine B?
