In a shooting game, two players shoot at a target at the same time. Suppose person A hits the target with probability 0.7, whereas person B, independently, hits the target with probability 0.4. (a) Knowing that exactly one player hit the target, compute the probability that it was player's A shot? (b) If the target is hit, compute the probability that person A hit it?
