Answer:

  24/35, about 69%

Step-by-step explanation:

The data given can be put into a 2-way table (attached). It shows that 0.48 of all calls were answered and resulted in a mortgage application. Altogether, 0.70 of all calls resulted in a mortgage application. Thus the conditional probability of interest is ...

  p(spoke to attendant | applied for a mortgage) = p(spoke & applied)/p(applied)

  = 0.48/0.70 = 24/35 ≈ 69%

eduard

there are many combinations for it, but we can settle for say


\bf \begin{cases} f(x)=x+2\\[1em] g(x)=\cfrac{9}{x^2}\\[-0.5em] \hrulefill\\ (f\circ g)(x)\implies f(~~g(x)~~) \end{cases}\qquad \qquad f(~~g(x)~~)=[g(x)]+2 \\\\\\ f(~~g(x)~~)=\left[ \cfrac{9}{x^2} \right]+2\implies f(~~g(x)~~)=\cfrac{9}{x^2}+2
