A rare type of HPV virus affects 1% of the population in a state. A new test is designed to detect the virus before an outward manifestation. If given to an infected person the test shows positive result 97% of the time. If given to an uninfected person the test shows positive (false) result 2% of the time. (Use a probability tree) If the test is given to a randomly chosen person in the population and gives a positive result, what is the probability that the person is actually infected?

A company did a study of available vacation time for their staff employees over the past years. They determined the probability a staff employee selected at random has 2 weeks’ vacation was 45%, 1 week vacation 10%, 3 weeks’ vacation 20%, and more than 3 weeks’ vacation was 25%. The company randomly selects 20 employees. What is the probability that out of the 20 selected, at least 2 workers have 1 week vacation time?
Suppose you are going to draw 20 cards, with replacement, from a deck of 52 cards and record the proportion of draws that are red. There are 26 red and 26 black cards in a typical deck of cards. You draw the 20 cards, replacing each card between draws, and 2/20 cards drawn are red. Are you suspicious about the fairness of this deck of cards? Simply list the answer to your probability calculation and explain your reasoning.
