<title>HW 1 Q5</title>
<p>
Write <m>F</m> for the event that there's a fire and <m>S</m> for the event that there's visible smoke.
Then the information we're given can be interpreted as:
<md>
<mrow> \Pr(F) \amp = 0.01 </mrow>
<mrow> \Pr(S) \amp = 0.1 </mrow>
<mrow> \Pr(S\mid F) \amp = 0.9 </mrow>
</md>
In this case, we can use the simpler version of Bayes' Theorem:
<md>
<mrow> \Pr(F \mid S) = \frac{\Pr(S \mid F)\Pr(F)}{\Pr(S)} = \dotsb </mrow>
</md>
Unlike our usual diagnostic testing examples, we do have access to the denominator probability here.
