Suppose that when a machine is adjusted properly, 50 percent of the items produced by it are or rugh quality and the other 50 percent are of medium quality. Suppose, however, that the machine is improperly adjusted during 10 percent of the time and that, under these conditions, 25 percent of the items produced by it are of high quality and 75 percent are of medium quality.

(a) Suppose that five items produced by the machine at a certain time are selected at random and inspected. If four of these items are of high quality and one item is of medium quality, what is the probability that the machine was adjusted properly at that time?

(b) Suppose that one additional item, which was produced by the machine at the same time as the other five items, is selected and found to be of medium quality. What is the new posterior probability that the machine was adjusted properly?
