Suppose that a medical test has a 85% chance of detecting a disease if the person has it (P(PT|D)=0.85) and a 90% chance of correctly indicating that the disease is absent if the person really does not have the disease (P(NT|Dc=0.90). Suppose that 95% of the population does not have the disease P(Dc)=0.95  What is the probability that a randomly chosen person will test negative P(NT)?

2-Proportion Test

In a 2-proportion test, two separate proportions are measured at the same time, and their similarity is evaluated. It is also known as a 2-proportion z-test, and a comparison of two different proportions is done in this method.
