Prove Theorem 2, the extended form of Bayes' Theorem. That is, suppose that E is an event from a sample space S and that FI , F2, ... , Fn are mutually exclusive events such that U7=1 Fj = S. Assumethat p(E) =1= o and p(Fj) =1= 0 for i = 1 , 2, ... , n. Show that p(Fj I E) = n L... (E I F) (F)' /=I P / P / [Hint: Use the fact that E = U7=1 (E n Fj ).]
