We know the following about a colormetric method used to test lake water for nitrates. If water specimens contain nitrates, a solution dropped into the water will cause the specimen to turn red 95% of the time. When used on water specimens without nitrates, the solution causes the water to turn red 10% of the time (because chemicals other than nitrates are sometimes present and they also react to the agent). Past experience in a lab indicates that nitrates are contained in 30% of the water specimens that are sent to the lab for testing. 1. If a water specimen is randomly selected from among those sent to the lab, what is the probability that it will turn red when tested?2. If a water sample is randomly selected and turns red when tested, what is the probability that it actually contains nitrates?a) 0.80b) 0.95c) 0.30d) 0.38
