Premium unleaded fuel is used in group A, while regular unleaded fuel is used in group B. The total maintenance cost for each vehicle during a one-year period is recorded. Premium fuel will be used if it is shown to reduce maintenance costs.arrow_forwardJohn Allen Paulos has pointed out a problem with massive, untargeted wiretaps. To illustrate the problem, he sup-poses that one out of every million Americans has terrorist ties. Furthermore, he supposes that the terrorist profile is 99% accu-rate, so that if a person has terrorist ties, the profile will pick them up 99% of the time, and if the person does not have ter-rorist ties, the profile will accidentally pick them up only 1% of the time. Given that the profile has picked up a person, what is the probability that the person actually has terrorist ties? Dis-cuss how your answer affects your opinion on domestic wire-tapping.
