Mr. Paulson has noticed that a couple of his students are taking AP Calculus BC at the same time as they are taking AP Statistics. He wonders if there is a correlation between taking BC Calculus at the same time and good performance on the AP Statistics tests. He separates students into 3 groups: Students taking AB Cal and Statistics, students taking BC Calc and statistics, and students only taking Statistics. Then he looks at how many students in each group have a grade of A or B, C or D, and finally E and below. Based on the results of his test, he will be able to determine whether the proportion of students who perform well in the class differs between which/how many math courses they are taking.

An airport screens bags for forbidden items, and an alarm is supposed to be triggered when a forbidden item is detected. Suppose 5% of bags contain forbidden items. If a bag contains a forbidden item, there is a 98% chance that it triggers the alarm. If a bag does not contain a forbidden item, there is an 8% chance that it triggers the alarm.
Given a randomly chosen bag triggers the alarm, what is the probability that it contains a forbidden item?
