In a manufacturing company,three machines $A$,$B$ and $C$ respectively produce $20 \%$,$30 \%$ and $50 \%$ of the total product. The defective products from $A$,$B$ and $C$ are respectively $5 \%$,$3 \%$ and $2 \%$. If an article produced by the company is selected at random and is found to be defective,then the probability that it is produced by machine $B$ is

  • A
    $\frac{10}{29}$
  • B
    $\frac{8}{29}$
  • C
    $\frac{9}{29}$
  • D
    $\frac{11}{29}$

$A$ bag contains $10$ balls out of which $k$ are red and $(10-k)$ are black, where $0 \le k \le 10$. If three balls are drawn at random without replacement and all of them are found to be black, then the probability that the bag contains $1$ red and $9$ black balls is:

$A$ factory has a total of three manufacturing units,$M_1, M_2$,and $M_3$,which produce bulbs independently. The units $M_1, M_2$,and $M_3$ produce bulbs in the proportions of $2: 2: 1$,respectively. It is known that $20\%$ of the bulbs produced in the factory are defective. It is also known that,of all the bulbs produced by $M_1, 15\%$ are defective. Suppose that,if a randomly chosen bulb produced in the factory is found to be defective,the probability that it was produced by $M_2$ is $\frac{2}{5}$. If a bulb is chosen randomly from the bulbs produced by $M_3$,then the probability that it is defective is $.....$ .
