**Question 8****Details:**What proportion of children in a certain population are abused? The classification of whether a child is abused is determined by a social worker. But social workers are not perfect, and diagnoses are sometimes incorrect. Suppose if a child is abused (A), then a social worker will classify that child as abused with probability 0.97 and as non-abused with probability 0.03. If the child is non-abused then the social worker classifies the child as non-abused with probability 0.96 and as abused with probability 0.04. Based upon many examinations, it is known that about 1.3% of children in the population are abused. Suppose 1.3% of the population actually is abused. We randomly select one child from the population to be examined by a social worker to detect for abuse.a. What is the probability that the selected child is abused? [ ]b.
