Suppose we have two jars. The first jar contains 4 white and 6 black marbles while the second one contains 4 white and 3 black marbles. One marble is drawn at random from one of the jars, and it is found to be black. Find the probability that it was drawn from the first jar.
Hint: Probability of selecting jar 1 and jar 2 is the same.
To answer problems 2 through 5, consider the random experiment of rolling two fair, distinct dice. Let be the maximum of the two numbers. Recall, for example, max (12, 15) = 15 and max (10, 10) = 10.
