In a laboratory, blood test is 95% effective in detecting a certain disease, when it is, in fact, present. However, the test also yields a false positive (test is positive but patient does not have the disease) result for 1% of the healthy people tested. 0.5% of the population actually has the disease. Given this information, calculate the following probabilities: The probability that the test is positive. Given a negative result, the probability that the person does not have the...

2. A rare disease affects 1% of the population. A test has a sensitivity of 98%, i.e., it will give a positive result 98% of the time that a person actually has the disease. The same test also has a specificity of 95%, i.e., it will give a negative result 95% of the time when a person does not have the disease. Denote the event that a randomly person has a disease by D, and the event that a randomly...

3) A certain blood test for a disease gives a positive result 90% of the time among patients having the disease. It also gives a positive result 25% of the time among people who do not have the disease. It is believed that 30% of the population has this disease a) What is the probability that a person with a positive test result indeed has the disease? b) What is the probability that the blood test gives a negative result?...

A blood test to diagnose a disease was performed on a number of patients. Given the following data: Number of patients who had a positive test result and had the disease = 1,193 Number of patients = 1,561 Number of patients who had a negative test, and did not have the disease = 253 Number of patients who had a positive test result, but did not have the disease = 58 Number of patients who had a negative test result,...

4. For a diagnostic test of a certain disease, let T1 denote the probability that the diagnosis is positive given that a subject has the disease, and let T2 denote the probability that the diagnosis is positive given that a subject does not have it. Let p denote the probability that a subject has the disease. (a) More relevant to a patient who has received a positive diagnosis is the probability that they truly have the disease. Given that a...
