Jamie is equally likely to attend or not to attend a training session before a football match. If he attends, he is certain to be chosen for the team which plays in the match. If he does not attend, there is a probability of 0.6 that he is chosen for the team.
(i) Find the probability that Jamie is chosen for the team.
(ii) Find the conditional probability that Jamie attended the training session, given that he was chosen for the team.
Solution
Let \(A\) be the event that Jamie attends the training session, and \(T\) be the event that Jamie is chosen for the team.
