(1) What is the prior probability that this random person is infected given the prevalence of the infection in the population? Your answer should be to 1 decimal place and given as a percentage. P(H I ) = 0.8% (2) What is the prior probability that this random person is uninfected given the prevalence of the infection in the population? Your answer should be to 1 decimal place and given as a percentage. P(H U ) = 99.2% (3) What is the observed E needed for the Bayes theorem formula in this case? E = The person is tested negative on the test. (4) What is value of the prediction probability or likelihood P(E|H I ) needed for the Bayes theorem formula? Your answer should be to 1 decimal place and given as a percentage. P(E |H I ) = 5.0% (5) What is value of the prediction probability or likelihood P(E|H U ) needed for the Bayes theorem formula? Your answer should be to 1 decimal place and given as a percentage. P(E | H U ) = 85.0% (6) What is the posterior result probability for the hypothesis H I given the observed E? You don’t need to show your calculations. Your calculations should be done with values of the prior and prediction probabilities to 2 decimal places. Your answer should be to 1 decimal place and given as a percentage. P(H I | E) = 0.0% (7) What is the posterior result probability for the hypothesis H U given the observed E? You don’t need to show your calculations. Your answer should be to 1 decimal place and given as a percentage. P(H U | E) = 100.0% (8) We are told that a rapid test was given to 330 departing Westjet passengers at the Vancouver airport in early 2021. We don’t really know that the test used was the Spartan rapid test. But
we’ll assume that it was. Complete the frequency tree below about these people. Although these people might not be members of the BC population you can assume that they are and that they are random members of this population with nothing special about them. The test accuracy rates are as given. You have to enter 6 numbers in the frequency tree below. Your answers should be to 1 decimal place. A is 2.6 B is 2.5 C is 0.1 D is 327.4 E is 49.1 F is 278.3 (9) In this group how many false positive cases are there? Your answer should be to 1 decimal place. Number of false positives = 49.1 (out of 330) (10) In this group how many false negative cases are there? Your answer should be to 1 decimal places. Number of false negatives = 0.1 (out of 330)
