1. Assume your computer network may have been hacked and computers may have 2 different types of viruses (virus type-A and virus type-B). The current situation shows that 15% of computers end up with type-A virus, 10% end up with type-B virus, and 10% of the computers infected with type-A or type-B virus have both viruses. 1.a) Compute the probability that a computer is infected with both viruses 1.b) Compute the probability that a computer has type-B virus given that it has type-A virus
