We are asked to evaluate a cell phone app for identifying poisonous plants. The app takes as input a picture of a plant, and classifties it as either poisonous or safe. We test the app with a large mumber of plant pictures, and observe the following • 1% of all pictures depict poisonons plants. • The app identifies 90% of the pictures showing poisonous plants correctly as poisonous. • Among all pictures showing safe plants, the app identifies 91.4% percent as safe. Suppose we choose a random picture, and the app identifies it as poisonous. What is the probability that the depicted plant is safe?
