Use Bayes' rule to find the indicated probability.Two stores sell a certain MP3 players. Store A has 34% of the sales, 5% of which are of defective items, and store B has 66% of the sales, 1% of which are of defective items. The difference in defective rates is due to different levels of pre-sale checking of the product. A person receives a defective item of this product as a gift. What is the probability it came from store B?

A. 0.275
B. 0.22
C. 0.5667
D. 0.7083

Answer each question appropriately.If differentiable functions y = F(x) and y = G(x) both solve the initial value problem     on an interval I, must   for every x in I? Justify the answer.

A. F(x) = G(x) for every x in I because integrating f(x) results in one unique function. B. F(x) and G(x) are not unique. There are infinitely many functions that solve the initial value problem. When solving the problem there is an integration constant C that can be any value. F(x) and G(x) could each have a different constant term. C. There is not enough information given to determine if F(x) = G(x). D. F(x) = G(x) for every x in I because when given an initial condition, we can find the integration constant when integrating f(x). Therefore, the particular solution to the initial value problem is unique.
