4. Each year ratings are compiled concerning the performance of new cars during the first 90 days of use. Suppose that the cars have been categorized according to if the car needs warranty related repair (yes or no) and the country in which it is manufacturing the car is based (Japanese or not Japanese). Based on the data collected, the probability that the new car needs warranty repair is (0.04), the probability that the car is manufactured by a Japanese based company is (0.6). The probability that the car needs warranty repair and was manufactured by a Japanese based company is (0.025). Suppose that you know that the particular car has been manufactured in a Japanese based unit. What is the probability that the car needs warranty repair?
