Problem #5
Section A of my math class has 110 students. Section B of my math class has 80 students.
a). If I randomly select 15 students from the combined classes, in a way that the order of my
selection does not matter, what is the probability that all 15 students can from Section A?
b). If I randomly select 15 students from the combined classes, in a way that the order of my
selection does not matter, what is the probability that all 15 students can from Section B?
c). If I randomly select 15 students from the combined classes, in a way that the order of my
selection does not matter, what is the probability that all 7 students come from section A and 8
students come from section B?
Problem #6
A special passcode to unlock your phone consists of 4 digits where repeated digits are not

Bayesian Inference – Updating Beliefs A medical test for a rare disease has the following characteristics: Sensitivity (true positive rate): 99% Specificity (true negative rate): 98% The disease occurs in 0.5% of the population. A patient receives a positive test result. Questions: a) Define the relevant events and use Bayes’ Theorem to compute the probability that the patient actually has the disease.b) Explain why the result might seem counterintuitive, despite the high sensitivity and specificity.c) Discuss how prior probabilities influence posterior beliefs in Bayesian inference.d) Suppose a second, independent test with the same accuracy is conducted and is also positive. Update the probability that the patient has the disease.arrow_forward
