  1. X speaks truth in 70 percent of cases, and Y in 90 percent of cases. What is the probability that they likely to contradict each other in stating the same fact?

  2. A factory has two machines I and II. Machine-I produces 40% of items of the output and Machine-II produces 60% of the items. Further 4% of items produced by Machine-I are defective and 5% produced by Machine-II are defective. If an item is drawn at random, find the probability that it is a defective item.

  3. A factory has two machines I and II. Machine I produces 40% of items of the output and Machine II produces 60% of the items. Further 4% of items produced by Machine I are defective and 5% produced by Machine II are defective. An item is drawn at random. If the drawn item is defective, find the probability that it was produced by Machine II. (See the previous example, compare the questions).
