25) The National Cancer Institute (NCI) compiles U.S.epidemiologydata for a number of cancers. The NCI estimates that 3.65% ofwomen in their 60s get breast cancer. A mammogram can typicallyidentify correctly 85% of cancer cases and 95% of cases withoutcancer. If a woman in her 60s gets a negative mammogram, whatis the probability that she does have breast cancer.A 0.0059B) 0.0365C) 0.053D) 0.1024

To solve this problem, we can use Bayes' theorem. Let's define the events:A: Woman has breast…

Eswatini has the highest HIV prevalence in the world: 27.2% (2019 value) of this country's population is infected with HIV. The ELISA test is one of the first and most accurate tests for HIV. For those who carry HIV, the ELISA test is 99.7% accurate. For those who do not carry HIV, the test is 92.6% accurate. If an individual from Swaziland has tested positive, what is the probability that he carries HIV? (please round to 4 decimal places)Show the Bayes’ theorem computation P(HIV|+) = ?

Estimates from the American Diabetes Association suggest that 10% of the American population has diabetes. According to recent research,[1] the prevalence of smoking is 25.7% among individuals with diabetes, and 24.1% among individuals without diabetes. If a smoker is selected at random, what is the probability that the individual has diabetes? What is the probability that a non-smoking individual actually does not have diabetes?

According to the Federal Trade Commission report on consumer fraud and identity theft, 23% of all complaints in 2007 were for identity theft. This year, a certain state kept track of the number of its 1325 complaints were for identity theft. They want to know if the data provide enough evidence to show that this state had a different proportion of identity theft than 23%? State the random variable, population parameter, and hypotheses. The symbol for the random variable involved in this problem is The wording for the random variable in context is as follows: The symbol for the parameter involved in this problem is The wording for the parameter in context is as follows:

When studying radioactive material, a nuclear engineer found that over 365 days, 1,000,000 radioactive atoms decayed to 974,425 radioactive atoms, so 25,575 atoms decayed during 365 days. a. Find the mean number of radioactive atoms that decayed in a day. b. Find the probability that on a given day, 52 radioactive atoms decayed.
The president of Doerman Distributors, Inc. believes that 30% of the firm's orders come from first-time customers. A random sample of 100 orders will be used to estimate the proportion of first-time customers. What is the probability that the sample proportion will be within .05?
Do cat owners sleep better than those without cats? To help answer this question, a cat enthusiast obtained a random sample of 500 Canadians, each of whom answered two questions: 1. do you have a cat? (yes or no), 2. How well do you sleep? (good, neutral, bad). The dataset “CatSleep.xlsx” contains her findings. Find the probability that a randomly selected Canadian is a bad sleeper and a cat owner. Find the probability that a randomly selected Canadian is a neutral sleeper or a cat owner. Find the probability that a randomly selected non-cat owner is a bad sleeper. That is, find the probability that a randomly selected Canadian is a bad sleeper, given they are not a cat owner Can you handwrite the solution?
