A certain virus infects one in every 500 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 90% of the time if the person has the virus and 10% of the time if the person does not have the virus. Let A be the event "the person is infected" and B be the event "the person tests positive." (a) Find the probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive. (b)...
A certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 80% of the time if the person has the virus and 5% of the time if the person does not have the virus. (This 5% result is called a false positive.) Let A be the event "the person is infected" and B be the event "the person tests positive". a) Find the probability that a person has the virus...
A certain affects virus 0.9% of the population. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 87% of the time if the person has the virus (true positive) and 10% of the time if the person does not have the virus (false postive). Fill out the remainder of the following table and use it to answer the two questions below. Infected Not Infected Total Positive Test Negative Test Total 900 99,100 100,000 a) Find the probability...

A certain virus infects one in every 300 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 80% of the time when the person has the virus and 15 % of the time when the person does not have the virus. (This 15 % result is called a false positive.) Let A be the event "the person is infected" and B be the event "the person tests positive." (a) Using Bayes' Theorem, when a person tests...
A certain virus infects one in every 250 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 80% of the time when the person has the virus and 15% of the time when the person does not have the virus. (This 15% result is called a false positive) Let A be the event "the person is infected" and B be the event "the person tests positive." (a) Using Bayes' Theorem, when a person tests positive, determine...
A certain virus infects one in every 200 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 90% of the time if the person has the virus and 8% of the time if the person does not have the virus.

Question 2 1/1 pts 5% of a certain population has a particular genetic condition. A test for this condition gives a positive result with probability 20% when applied to a randomly selected individual from this population, and it gives a positive result 99% of the time, when the randomly selected individual really has the condition. Suppose a randomly selected individual from the population is tested. Given that the individual tests positive for the condition, what is the probability that the...
A certain virus infects one in every 200 people. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 80% of the time if the person has the virus and 5% of the time if the person does not have the virus. Using Bayes' Rule, if a person tests positive, determine the probability the person has the virus. Round to four decimal places.
