The board of directors of a company knows that the probability that the carbon emission from the company’s manufacturing unit is exceeding the permissible level is 35%. A consultant is hired to use a carbon footprint calculator to test for the emission level. The accuracy of this test is said to be 85%. What is the probability that the carbon emission from the manufacturing unit is within the permissible level, and the test predicts the opposite to be true? A. 0.2975% B. 0.0525% C. 0.0975% D. 0.5525% E. 0.6325%

So it would be P(A/B) right?

OpenStudy (justdoublechecking):

Therefore: .65% * .85% = 0.5525% Correct?
