The probability that a system with high fidelity will also have high selectivity is 0.559322

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

P (high selectivity) = 0.72

P (high fidelity) = 0.59

P (both) = 0.33

Therefore, to calculate the probability that a system with high fidelity will also have high selectivity we would have to make the following calculation:

the probability is P (high selectivity|high fidelity) = P (both) / P (high fidelity)

the probability is P (high selectivity|high fidelity) = 0.33/0.59

the probability is P (high selectivity|high fidelity) = 0.559322

The probability that a system with high fidelity will also have high selectivity is 0.559322
