4.The probability that a football team will defeat its next opponent is estimated to bel
0.7, if it doesn't rain, but only 0.5 if it rains. If the weather recorder shows that it has
rained 40% of the time on the date of the game during past years.
What is the
probability that the team will defeat it's next opponent?
5.Suppose there are 3 outcomes in an experiment say A, B, and C. Further, suppose
that A is twice as likely to occur as B which in turn is 3-times as likely to occur as C.
Find the probability of occurrence of A,B,C, respectively.
