Question

The probability that an international flight leaving the United States is delayed in departing (event D) is .26. The probability that an international flight leaving the United States is a transpacific flight (event P) is .50. The probability that an international flight leaving the U.S. is a transpacific flight and is delayed in departing is .13.

what is the probability?​

Answer 1

Missing part:

What is the probability that an international flight leaving the US is delayed in departing given that the flight is a transpacific flight?

Answer:

`P(D|P) = 0.50`

Explanation:

Given

`P(D) = 0.26`

`P(P) = 0.50`

`P(D\ and\ P) = 0.13`

The question illustrates conditional probability and it is represented as:

P(D|P)

This is then calculated as:

`P(D|P) = (P(D\ and\ P))/(P(D))`

So, we have:

`P(D|P) = (0.13)/(0.26)`

`P(D|P) = 0.50`
