Joel and Maja have studied for an exam that they will write for overgrading. The probability distribution for the grades (3, 4 or 5) are given below. If Joel writes the exam first and announces to Maja that he got a 5, then what is the probability that Maja only gets a 3? J/M 3 4 5 3 0.21 0.11 0.04 4 0.02 0.32 0.13 5 0.01 0.03 0.13

Q4. Researchers developed a "dog IQ test" and find that the population of dogs in the United States has a mean score of µ = 20 on this test with a standard deviation of σ = 2. You decide to test a sample of n = 40 dogs to do some research about whether some breeds are smarter. You decide to first test your own dog (or your closest friend's or family member's, if you don't have one). What is the probability that your dog will score an "dog IQ" greater than 25 (which is the cut-off for "Doggie Genius")?
The probability of afternoon rain given morning cloud cover >50% is of interest to those forecasting the weather. You can calculate this probability using Bayes' Theorem (below). The probability of morning cloud cover in general is 30% in the area you are concerned with and when there's afternoon rain, morning cloud cover of the kind described above occurs 90% of the time. The probability of rain in general for the area is about 26% of days. From the above information, identify what P(BIA) would be. Express your answer as a proportion, rounded to two decimal places. P(A/B)= = P(B|A)*P(A) P(B)
