During that time, the team has had a star player, Mary Jones (otherwise known as 'MJ'). Not only is MJ a great player but she also gives the team a morale boost when she plays. In fact, looking at the team's records, the coach notes that: Of all the wins the team has had, 80% of the time MJ was playing in the game, while 20% of the time she wasn't. Of all the losses the team has had, only 30% of the time was MJ playing in the game, while the other 70% of losses she wasn't. Also, the coach works out that during the time MJ has been with the team, the team has had a win rate of 55%. Today the team play a game and MJ has just called to say that she can't make it to the game. Assuming all other things being equal, and based on the above information, find the probability that the team will win today's game. Give your answer as a decimal to 2 decimal places. Probability that the team wins = [1 mark]- 2 of 3 ID: MST.FET.P.BT.02.0040A An administrator who works at a train station has to monitor the drinks vending machine. When the machine gets low on stock, a warning light appears and the administrator is meant to contact the drinks supplier to refill the machine. However, the light is not always accurate. In particular, it will occassionally come on even when the stock is not low. The administrator knows the following probabilities: On average the vending machine is low on stock on 2 out of every 100 days. That is, the probability of the vending machine being low on a random day is 0.02. The warning light is very accurate when it comes to positively reporting low stock. Specifically, if the stock is low, the probability that the warning light will come on is 1. However, the warning light also occasionally comes on even if the stock is not low - although this is rare. The probability that the light will come on during the day when the stock isn't low is 0.002. The administrator notices that the light has just appeared on the machine. Based on this information, calculate the probability that the stock is not low in the machine given that the warning light has just come on. Give your answer as a decimal to 3 decimal places. P(stock is not low|warning light is on) = [1 mark]- 3 of 3 ID: MST.FET.P.BT.03.0030A In the Legal Eagle law firm, 70% of the lawyers are male while 30% are female. Of the male lawyers, 40% are corporate lawyers and 60% are non-corporate lawyers. Of the female lawyers, 28% are corporate lawyers and 72% are non-corporate lawyers. If a lawyer is chosen at random and they are not a corporate lawyer, calculate the probability that they are male. Give your answer as a decimal to 2 decimal places.
