An HIV test is not entirely accurate. The test developer claims the test produces less than 5% false positives and less than 1% false negatives. In order to investigate the developer’s claim, the test was administered to1000 individuals known to have HIV and 10,000 individuals known not to have HIV. The results are below. Test Result Truly has HIV Truly does not have HIV Positive 993 591 Negative 7 9409 (a) Construct a 95% confidence interval for the proportion of false positives produced by the test. (b) Is there sufficient evidence to conclude, at the 5% level of significance, that the false positive rate is less than 5%? Explain. (c) Which of the two error types, false negative or false positive, is more crucial to public safety? Explain.

A study was conducted to determine whether a woman's risk of transmitting HIV to her unborn child is different for the younger vs. the older the child. A sample of 100 HIV- infected women who gave birth to two children found that, when only one of the two siblings had HIV, it occurred in 7 of the 100 older siblings and in 15 of the younger siblings, as shown in the table below. Younger sibling HIV? Yes No Yes 7 Older sibling HIV? No 15 76 (a) We are not interested in the case when both siblings are HIV positive or the case when both are not HIV positive. We are only interested in the two cases in which one sibling is HIV positive and the other is not (the 7 and 15). Test Ho: the probability of being HIV positive is the same for older siblings as it is for younger siblings along with the alternative HA: the probabilities are different. Use a = .10. (b) Test the hypothesis if HA is directional, that the younger sibling (15 in the table) is more likely than the older sibling to have HIV.…

1.) This is not an incomplete question. It has all the components of the question that was asked. Please help explain. Need help from a prob and stats expert: Let arr86 be a binary variable equal to 1 if a man was arrested during 1986, and zerootherwise. You have a dataset of young men from California who were born in 1960 or1961 and have at least one arrest prior to 1986. You also have data on the proportion ofprior arrests that led to a conviction (pcnv), the average sentence served from priorconvictions in months (avgsen), months spent in prison since age 18 prior to 1986(tottime), months spent in prison in 1986 (ptime86), and the number of quarters (0 to 4)that the man was legally employed in 1986 (qemp86). You estimate the following linearprobability model (standard errors are in parentheses): The Standard Errors for the equation go in order for each independent variable of the equation, and are below. The equation is extended and is in two separte rows. All information is…
