A crime is committed by one of two suspects, A and B. Initially, there is equal evidence against both of the suspects. After further investigation, it is determined that the guilty party has a blood type found in only 10% of the population at large. Suspect A does have this blood type; the blood type of Suspect B is unknown.
Define the following 3 events A, M and C.
A: "A is guilty" (Thus ° denotes "B is guilty')
M: "A’s blood type matches that of the guilty party"
C: "B's blood type matches that of the guilty party"
A. The police reported that suspect A is not a relative of suspect B. Is it reasonable to set P( MA)=P(C|A)=10%? Why?
B. Assume that P(MAC)=P(C|A)=10%. Given the information from the further investigation of the crime scene, what is the probability that A is the guilty party?
C. Assume that P( MA)=P(C/A)=10%. Given the information from the further investigation of the crime scene, what is the probability that B’s blood type matches that of the guilty party?

a) MA conditional with C can be interpreted as A which is known and C which is unknown match

b) 10/11

c) 2/11

Step-by-step explanation:

A={A is the guilty party}

= {A blood type matches that of the guilty party}

C = {B is the guilty party}

= {B blood type matches that of the guilty party}

a) The chance is 10% because MA conditional with C can be interpreted as A which is known and C which is unknown match

b) the probability that A is the guilty party is given by . Using bayes theorem:

c) the probability that B’s blood type matches that of the guilty party is given as . Using LOTS Therefore:

for every hour i deducted .5 inches from the length of the candle

part b

it is a function because for every x value there is only one y value

part   c

for every x value there is only one y value

step-by-step explanation:

two pairs of adjacent sides are of equal length. this implies that one diagonal divides the kite into congruent triangles, and so the angles between the two pairs of equal sides are equal in measure. it also implies that the diagonals are perpendicular.
