Question

1. Let the variable X be someone's disease status

  • X = D then someone has strep throat
  • X = Dc then someone does not have strep throat

Let the variable Y be someone's test result

  • Y= + is a positive test indicating the test detected strep throat
  • Y = - is a negative test indicating the test did not detect strep throat

 

  Y=+ Y=-
X=D 36 17
X=Dc 13 20

 

Calculate the probability someone does not have strep throat if it is known their test came back negative

Round your answer to 4 decimal places.

 

2. Let the variable X be someone's disease status
