QUESTION 6
1. A Financial Consultant has classified her clients according to their gender and the composition of their investment portfolio (primarily bonds,
primarily stocks, or a balanced mix of bonds and stocks). The proportions of clients falling into the various categories are shown in the following
table:
Portfolio Composition
Gender
Bonds
Stocks
Balanced
Male
0.18
0.20
0.25
Female
0.12
0.10
0.15
One client is selected at random, and two events A and B are defined as follows:
A: The client selected is male.
B: The client selected has a balanced portfolio.
Find the probability that the client selected has a balanced portfolio, given that the client is female (i.e. find P(B|A).
P(B|AS = 0.25/0.40 = 0.6250
O P(B|A) = 0.15/0.37 = 0.4054
O P(B|AS = 0.37/0.15 = 2.4667
O PIBIA) = 0.25/0.37 = 0.6756
