A hospital is testing patients for a certain disease. If a patient has the disease, the test is designed to return a “positive” result. If a patient does not have the disease, the test should return a “negative” result. No test is perfect though. 99% of patients who have the disease will test positive. 5% of the patients who don’t have the disease will also test positive. 10% of the population in question has the disease. If a random patient tests positive,

ALDER Binomial Probability Review Practice 1. Allie plays on the varsity basketball team and makes 79% of her free throws. If she takes 12 shots, find the probability that she will make exactly 8 of them. 2. Julie plays corn hole and gets about 60% of the bags in the hole. If she throws 20 bags, find the probability that she will get at least 15 of them in the hole. 3.

Suppose you are conducting a test of significance to try to determine whether your cat, Hope, will go to the correct object (out of two) when it is pointed to. You test Hope 100 times and finds she goes to the correct object in 70 out of those 100 trials. In this scenario, what is the variable? Whether or not Hope goes to the correct object The 100 trials The proportion of the 100 trials that Hope goes to the correct object The long term proportion (probability) that Hope will go to the correct object
