Bag $A$ contains $3$ white and $5$ black balls, while bag $B$ contains $4$ white and $3$ black balls. $A$ ball is selected at random from bag $A$ and put into bag $B$. If a ball is now selected at random from bag $B$, what is the probability that this ball is white?

  • A
    $\frac{20}{64}$
  • B
    $\frac{31}{64}$
  • C
    $\frac{35}{64}$
  • D
    $\frac{32}{64}$

$A$ laboratory blood test is $99 \%$ effective in detecting a certain disease when it is in fact,present. However,the test also yields a false positive result for $0.5 \%$ of the healthy persons tested (that is,if a healthy person is tested,then,with probability $0.005,$ the test will imply he has the disease). If $0.1 \%$ of the population actually has the disease,what is the probability that a person has the disease given that his test result is positive?
