Answer and explanation:

Given : At Tech Express, 40% of the customers purchases small coffee and 60% purchases medium. Of those customers purchasing small coffee, 30% prefer decaf. Of those purchasing medium coffee, 50% prefer decaf.

Let A_1 customer purchase small coffee.

i.e. $P(A_1)=40\%=0.4$

A_2 customer purchase medium coffee.

i.e. $P(A_2)=60\%=0.6$

Let B be the customer purchase prefer decaf.

So, $P(B|A_1)=30\%=0.3$

$P(B|A_2)=50\%=0.5$

(a) What is the probability that the next customer will request medium and decaf coffee?

i.e. $P(A_2\cap B)=P(A_2)\times P(B|A_2)$

$P(A_2\cap B)=0.6\times 0.5$

$P(A_2\cap B)=0.3$

(b) What is the probability that the next customer prefers decaf?

i.e. $P(B)=P(A_1\cap B)+P(A_2\cap B)$

$P(B)=P(A_1)\times P(B|A_1)+P(A_2)\times P(B|A_2)$

$P(B)=0.4\times 0.3+0.6\times 0.5$

P(B)=0.12+0.3

P(B)=0.42

i.e. $P(A_1|B)=\frac{P(A_1\cap B)}{P(B)}$

$P(A_1|B)=\frac{0.12}{0.42}$

P(A_1|B)=0.28
