Answer:

P(no steroid user / positive reading on test) = 0.3309

Step-by-step explanation:

Computation:

Bayes' Theorem:

P(A / B) = P(A and B) / P(B)

P(no steroid user / positive reading on test) = P(no steroid user and positive) / P(positive)

P(no steroid user / positive reading on test) =  (0.92 x 0.04)/(0.08 x 0.93 + 0.92 x 0.04)

P(no steroid user / positive reading on test) = 0.3309
