Question
By rewriting the formula for the multiplication rule, you can write a formula for finding conditional probabilities, The conditional probability of event B occurring, given that event A has occurred, is P[B| A] = P(A and B)/P(A). Use the in that it arrives on time. The probability that an airplane flight departs on time is 0.91. The probability that a flight arrives on time is 0.86. The probability that flight departs and arrives on time is 0.82. The probability that a fight departed on time given that it arrives on time is. (Round to the nearest thousandth as needed.)
Explanation / Answer
As per the rule of conditional probability,
P(a flight departs on time | it arrives on time) = P(a flight departs and arrives on time)/P(a flight arrives on time)
= 0.82/0.86 = 0.953
