(1 point) Factories A and B produce computers. Factory A produces 3 times as many computers as factory B. The probability that an item produced by factory A is defective is 0.013 and the probability that an item produced by factory B is defective is 0.035. A computer is selected at random and it is found to be defective. What is the probability it came from factory A? Answer: HINT: It can help to pin numbers onto the factories. If Factory B produces 1000 computers, then Factory A produces 3 000 computers. Now you can directly compute the number of defective computers from each factory and proceed from there.
