1)
probability that person having cancer given that the test indicates cancer
=P(Cancer and test indicates cancer)/P(tested positive)
=0.03*0.96/(0.03*0.96+0.97*0.02)
=0.598
(Note for first picture this should be 0.800)

A new, simple test has been developed to detect a particular type of cancer. The test must be evaluated before it is put into use. A medical researcher selects a random sample of 2,000 adults and finds (by other means) that 4% have this type of cancer. Each of the 2.000 adults is given the test, and it is found that the test indicates cancer in 99% of those who have it and in 1% of those who do not....

A new test to detect TB has been designed. It is estimated that 89% of people taking this test have the disease. The test detects the disease in 97% of those who have the disease. The test does not detect the disease in 99% of those who do not have the disease. If a person taking the test is chosen at random, what is the probability of the test indicating that the person does not have the disease?

Problem 1 [Sans R (a). Say a test can detect a disease with a type I error rate (false positive) of 10 % and a type II error rate (missed positive) of 0.1 %. If a person is randomly chosen from the population, the chance of having this disease is 0.1 %. If a random person is chosen from the population and tests positive for this disease, what is the probability they have this disease? (b). Say a test can...

A new medical test has been designed to detect the presence of the mysterious Brainlesserian disease. Among those who have the disease, the probability that the disease will be detected by the new test is 0.82. However, the probability that the test will erroneously indicate the presence of the disease in those who do not actually have it is 0.06. It is estimated that 13 % of the population who take this test have the disease. If the test administered...

A new lie-detector test has been devised and must be tested before it is put into use. Three hundred people are selected at random, and each person draws and keeps a card from a box of 300 cards. Half the cards instruct the person to lie and the others instruct the person to tell the truth. Of those who lied, 90% fail the new lie-detector test (that is the test indicated lying). Of those who told the truth, 6% failed...

5. Suppose a rehabilitation psychologist has developed a new job skills training program for people who have not been able to hold a job. Of the 14 people who agree to be in the study, the researcher randomly picks seven of these volunteers to be in a experimental group who will go through the special training program. The other seven volunteers are put in a control group who will go through an ordinary job skills training program. After finishing the...
