A was a hidden SARS carrier. Suppose: I: P(B got SARS directly from A)=P(C got SARS directly from A)=4/5 II: P(B got SARS from C |C got SARS from A) =P(C got SARS from B |B got SARS from A) =1/8 (assume there is no way of getting SARS except between themselves) Find the probability that (i) C didn't get SARS given that B got SARS (ii) C didn't get SARS given that B didn't get SARS
最佳解答:
P(C didn't get SARS given that B got SARS)=P(C DIDN'T get SARS from SARS carrier B)*P(C DIDN'T got SARS directly from A) (1-4/5)(1-1/8) =7/40 ii)1-P(C got SARS directly from A) =1-4/5 =1/5 2007-04-06 21:49:04 補充： the answer in (i) MUST BE smaller than (ii) C could got SARS directly from A or got from B.IF the question is C didn't get SARS FROM B given that B got SARS, the answer is 7/8
其他解答:
Let P(B) = P(B got SARS directly from A) = 4/5 P(C) = P(C got SARS directly from A) =4/5 P(B|C) = P(B got SARS from C |C got SARS from A) =1/8 P(C|B) = P(C got SARS from B |B got SARS from A) =1/8 (i)find P(C'|B), where C' is the complement of C P(B) = P(C & B) + P(C'&B) P(B) = P(C|B)*P(B) + P(C'|B)*P(B) 1 = P(C|B) + P(C'|B)
