Step-by-Step Solution

The question asks for the value of \(P(S|E)\), which is the probability of the sample space S occurring given that event E has occurred.

By the definition of conditional probability, \(P(S|E) = \frac{P(S \cap E)}{P(E)}\)

Since E is an event in the sample space S, \(S \cap E = E\). Therefore, \(P(S \cap E) = P(E)\)

Substituting this into the conditional probability formula, we get \(P(S|E) = \frac{P(E)}{P(E)} = 1\)

Correct Answer: 1

For the vacancy advertised in the newspaper, 3000 candidates submitted their applications. From the data it was revealed that two third of the total applicants were females and other were males. The selection for the job was done through a written test. The performance of the applicants indicates that the probability of a male getting a distinction in written test is 0.4 and that a female getting a distinction is 0.35. Find the probability that the candidate chosen at random will have a distinction in the written test.

(a) In answering a question on a multiple choice test, a student either knows the answer or guesses. Let 3/5 be the probability that he knows the answer and 2/5 be the probability that he guesses. Assuming that a student who guesses at the answer will be correct with probability 1/3. What is the probability that the student knows the answer, given that he answered it correctly?
