You've Got Cooties! A certain medical test has the following reliability: if a personhas cooties the test will show positive with probability 0.95. If a person does nothave cooties, the test will show negative with probability 0.6. Overall, 10% of thepopulation has cooties. Give your answers as percentages with two decimal digits,e.g. 93.42%.Hint: Fill in this tree diagram. C = person has cooties. F = person is cooties "free". P =test is positive for the disease. N = test is negative for the disease. If a person tests positive, what is the probability that the person actually has thedisease?1) 9.5%O2) 95%3) 0.5%4) 45.5%5) 20.88%6) 38.36%
