Problem 2. Suppose a disease, Kermyfrogulosis, occurs in 1 out of every 100 people. If you have this disease and it goes untreated, the (only) effect is that your skin turns bright green. Suppose that a test for this disease gives 5% false negatives and 10% false positives. a. What is the probability that a patient has the disease given that he tests negative? b. What is the probability that a patient does not have the disease given that he tests positive? c. Unfortunately, the treatment for the disease has a chance of actually causing the symptoms, i.e. turning the skin a bright green color and this effect is independent of whether or not the patient has the disease. This means that if you have the disease, then the likelihood that the treatment prevents the symptoms is and if you dont have the disease the treatment
