The transportation safety authority (tsa) has developed a new test to detect large amounts of liquid in luggage bags. based on many test runs, the tsa determines that if a bag does contain large amounts of liquid, there is a probability of 0.93 the test will detect it. if a bag does not contain large amounts of liquid, there is a 0.09 probability the test will conclude that it does (a false positive). suppose that in reality only 5 in 100 bags actually contain large amounts of liquid.

1.what is the probability a randomly selected bag will have apositive test? give your answer to four decimal places.
2.given a randomly selected bag has a positive test, what is theprobability it actually contains a large amount of liquid? giveyour answer to four decimal places.
