38% of students taking exam P will pass the exam. 5% of students are taking exam P having used ADAPT. 79% of the students using ADAPT pass the exam. What is the probability of passing the exam if a student does not use ADAPT

the probability of passing the exam if a student does not use ADAPT is 0.3584

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the data in the question;

Probability a student will pass = 38% = 0.38

Probability a student have used ADAPT = 5% = 0.05

P(passed  | used ADAPT) = 79% = 0.79

Now lets use table

                          Used ADAPT                        Not use ADAPT                 Total

Passed            [0.05×0.79] = 0.0395           [0.38 - 0.0395] = 0.3405     0.38

Not Passed     [0.05-0.0395] = 0.0105        [0.62 - 0.0105] = 0.6095     0.62

Total                             0.05                                      0.95

Now, the probability of passing the exam if a student does not use ADAPT will be;

⇒ P(passed and Not used ADAPT) / P( did not use ADAPT)

⇒ 0.3405 / 0.95

⇒ 0.3584

Therefore, the probability of passing the exam if a student does not use ADAPT is 0.3584
