If a machine is correctly set up,it produces $90\%$ acceptable items. If it is incorrectly set up,it produces only $40\%$ acceptable items. Past experience shows that $80\%$ of the set ups are correctly done. If after a certain set up,the machine produces $2$ acceptable items,find the probability that the machine is correctly set up.

  • A
    $0.9529$
  • B
    $0.9000$
  • C
    $0.8000$
