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 Â° 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?

Does the function satisfy the hypotheses of the mean value theorem on the given interval? f(x) = 4x^2 + 3x + 4, [−1, 1] no, f is continuous on [−1, 1] but not differentiable on (−1, 1). no, f is not continuous on [−1, 1]. yes, f is continuous on [−1, 1] and differentiable on (−1, 1) since polynomials are continuous and differentiable on . there is not enough information to verify if this function satisfies the mean value theorem. yes, it does not matter if f is continuous or differentiable; every function satisfies the mean value theorem.
