Business Analysis 2372 homework that I am stuck on and is not multiple choice. Please show how you would work this out. THANKS
Umbrella Corporation has developed a new test for a disease. Before it can get government approval, it must show that the probability of having the disease, given a positive result, is high.
The company recruited a large number of individuals whose disease status (either disease free or having the disease) was known and administered the new test. The results are shown in the table below.
Let A = "has disease." Find P(A), the marginal probability of having the disease.
Disease Status | |||
Has Disease | Does Not Have Disease | ||
Test Result | Positive | 41 | 21 |
Negative | 20 | 149 |
