The government bought and installed the latest facial recognition software at an airport to find terrorists.The facial recognition software is 85% accurate in finding people on the terrorist watch list and misidentifies 10% of innocent people. In addition,the terrorist watch list captures 50% of people who are not terrorists.If one in one million people are terrorists, what is the probability that someone who is flagged by the new piece of software is, indeed, a terrorist?
