The prevalence of a certain disease is 0.09. A diagnostic test has been developed to test for the disease in question which returns a positive reading with probability 0.9 amongst those where it is known they have the disease and returns a negative result with probability 0.96 for those that are known not to have the disease. A person is suspected to have the disease, takes the test and the test comes back positive. What is the probability that they have the disease given that the test came back positive ?

The probability that they have the disease given that the test came back positive is 0.6899.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the event that the prevalence of a certain disease is 0.09

Let D be the event in which those patients are tested who already have the disease then the probability of B

P (D) = 0.9

Let F be the event in which those patients are tested who do not have the disease then the probability of F

P (F) = 0.96

The tree diagram helps explain the events and their probabilities.

A 0.09 0.9 (D)= P(D/A) (positive test)

B 0.91 0.96 (F)= P(F/ B) (negative test)

0.04 P (G/B) (positive test)

By Bayes Theorem

P (A/ D)= P (A). P(D/A)/ P (A). P(D/A)+P (B) P(G/ B)

P (A/ D)= 0.09 (0.9)/ 0.09 (0.9)+ (0.91)(0.04)

P (A/ D)= 0.081/ 0.081+0.0364

P (A/ D)= 0.081/ 0.1174

P (A/ D)= 0.6899

The probability that they have the disease given that the test came back positive is 0.6899.

8

step-by-step explanation:

to find the amount of gift bags to use all the supplies, find the gcf or greatest common factor. this is the largest number which multiplies evenly into each term.

48 has factors: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 12. 16, 24, 48

80 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

64 has factors: 1, 2, 4, 8, 8, 16, 32, 64

the highest number factor they all share in common is 8. this means there will be 8 bags with 6 pencils, 10 markers, and 8 stickers in each bag.
