A certain federal agency employs three consulting firms $(\mathrm{A}, B,$ and $C)$ with probabilities $0.40,$ $0.35,$ and $0.25,$ respectively. From past experience it is known that the probability of cost overruns for the firms are $0.05,0.03,$ and $0.15,$ respectively. Suppose a cost overrun is experienced by the agency. (a) What is the probability that the consulting firm involved is company C? (b) What is the probability that it is company A?
