$$P$$ and $$Q$$ are considering to apply for a job. The probability that $$P$$ applies for the job is $${1 \over 4},$$ the probability that $$P$$ applies for the job given that $$Q$$ applies for the job is $${1 \over 2},$$ and the probability that $$Q$$ applies for the job given that $$P$$ applies for the job is $${1 \over 3}.$$ Then the probability that $$P$$ does not apply for the job given that $$Q$$ does not apply for the job is
A
$${4 \over 5}$$
B
$${5 \over 6}$$

Consider the following experiment.
Step1: Flip a fair coin twice.
Step2: If the outcomes are (TAILS, HEADS) then output $$Y$$ and stop.
Step3: If the outcomes are either (HEADS, HEADS) or (HEADS, TAILS), then output $$N$$ and stop.
Step4: If the outcomes are (TAILS, TAILS), then go to Step 1.

The probability that the output of the experiment is $$Y$$ is (up to two decimal places) _____________.

Suppose $${X_i}$$ for $$i=1,2,3$$ are independent and identically distributed random variables whose probability mass functions are $$\,\,\Pr \left[ {{X_i} = 0} \right] = \Pr \left[ {{X_i} = 1} \right] = 1/2\,\,$$ for $$i=1,2,3.$$ Define another random variable $$\,\,Y = {X_1}{X_2} \oplus {X_3},\,\,$$ where $$ \oplus $$ denotes $$XOR.$$ Then $$\Pr \left[ {Y = 0\left| {{X_3} = 0} \right.} \right]$$ =________.
