Q1) A specific article is produced by machines M, M, M,and M. The probability that a random article is produced by M, Mə and Ma is 0.2,0.3 and 0.1 respectively. The probability for each machine to produce defective articles is given as M, = 0.03, M2 = 0.02, M, = 0.04 and Ma 0.01. What is the probability that a random article was made by Ma, given that it is non-defective?
