45th percentile means that 45% of the data fall below that number while 55% (that is, 100-45) fall above it.

Now, arranging the number in ascending order;
$60, $85, $95, $105, $120, $145, $155, $175, $190, $215, $235, $240, $260, $285, $325

The total number of counts = 15
Then,
Index = 15*45% = 15*0.45 = 6.75

Round up,
Index = 7

The,
7th number = $155

Therefore, 45th percentile value of the data = $155

A train station has installed a system for determining whether bags contain explosives. It has a 95% chance of correctly identif
astraxan [27]

Answer:

a) P(identified as containing explosives)=P(actually contains explosives and identified as containing explosives)+P(actually not contains explosives and identified as containing explosives)

=(10/(4*106))*0.95+(1-10/(4*106))*0.005 =0.005002363

hence  probability that it actually contains explosives given identified as containing explosives)

=(10/(4*106))*0.95/0.005002363=0.000475

b)

let probability of correctly identifying a bag without explosives be a

hence a =0.99999763 ~ 99.999763%

c)

No as even if that becomes 1 ; proportion of true explosives will always be less than half of total explosives detected,
