Type the correct answer in each box. Use numerals instead of words. A new test is developed to test for organic matter in soil samples, giving "positive" or "negative" results to indicate that a sample does or does
not contain organic matter.
For a soll sample that contains organic matter, the test will give a positive result 95% of the time and a negative result (false negative) 5% of the
time. For a soil sample that does not contain organic matter, the test will give a positive result (false positive) 20% of the time and a negative
result 80% of the time.
A study included a population of 1,000 soil samples, and 70% of those studied where known to contain organic matter.
