Software to detect fraud in consumer phone cards tracks the number of metropolitan areas where calls originate each day. It is f

ound that 3% of the legitimate users originate calls from two or more metropolitan areas in a single day. However, 30% of fraudulent users originate calls from two or more metropolitan areas in a single day. The proportion of fraudulent users is 0.0131%. If the same user originates calls from two or more metropolitan areas in a single day, what is the probability that the user is fraudulent? Round your answer to six decimal places (e.g. 98.765432).

Answer:

0.999987

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The user is a legitimate one = E₁

The user is a fraudulent one = E₂

The same user originates calls from two metropolitan areas  = A

Use Bay's Theorem to solve the problem

P(E₁) = 0.0131% = 0.000131

P(E₂) = 1 - P(E₁)  = 0.999869

P(A/E₁) = 3%  = 0.03

P(A/E₂) = 30% = 0.3

Given a randomly chosen user originates calls from two or more metropolitan, The probability that the user is fraudulent user is :

P(E_2/A)=\frac{P(E_2)\times P(A/E_2)}{P(E_1)\times P(A/E_1)+P(E_2)\times P(A/E_2)}

=\frac{(0.999869)(0.3)}{(0.000131)(0.03)+(0.999869)(0.3)}

\frac{0.2999607}{0.00000393+0.2999607}

\frac{0.2999607}{0.29996463}

= 0.999986898 ≈ 0.999987

5(6-i)+(6-i)(3-i). show work.
Bumek [7]

47 -14i

You can work this out in the straight-forward way, or you can recognize that (6-i) is a common factor. In the latter case, you have ...

... = (6-i)(5 + 3-i)

... = (6 -i)(8 -i)

This product of binomials is found in the usual way. Each term of one factor is multiplied by each term of the other factor and the results summed. Of course, i = √-1, so i² = -1.

... = 6·8 -6i -8i +i²

... = 48 -14i -1

... =

_____

A suitable graphing calculator will work these complex number problems easily.

PLEASE HELP ASAP f(x) = x2 What is g(x)?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:

c. g(x) = 4x^2

Step-by-step explanation:

From a first glance, since g(x), is skinnier than f(x), meaning that it is increasing faster, so I know that I can eliminate options A & B since the coefficient on x needs to be greater than 1.

We can then look and see that g(1) = 4 as shown by the point given to us on the graph.

To find the right answer we can find g(1) for options C & D and whichever one matches the point on the graph is our correct answer. e

Option C:

once we plug in 1 for x, our equation looks like

4(1)^2.

1^2 = 1, and 4(1) = 4,

so g(1) = 4. and our point is (1,4).

This is the same as the graph so this is the CORRECT answer.

If you want to double check, you can still find g(1) for option D and verify that it is the WRONG answer.

Option D:

once we plug in 1 for x, our equation looks like

16(1)^2

1^2 = 1, and 16(1) = 16,

so g(1) = 16. and our point is (1,16).

This is different than the graph so this is the WRONG answer.
