A home pregnancy test is not always accurate. suppose the probability that the test indicates that a woman is pregnant when she

actually is not is 0.02, and the probability the test indicates that a woman is not pregnant when she really is, is 0.03. assume that the probability that a woman who takes the test is actually pregnant is 0.7. what is the probability that a woman is pregnant if the test yields a not pregnant result?

Set Events:
T=tests positive~T=tests negativeP=subject is pregnant~P=subject is not pregnant
We are givenP(T n ~P)=0.02P(~T n P)=0.03P(P)=0.7
recall by definition of conditional probabilityP(A|B)=P(A n B)/P(B)

Need to find P(P|~T)
First step: make a contingency diagram of probabilities (intersection, n)
          P       ~P       sum 
T       0.67   0.02     0.69=P(T) 
~T     0.03   0.28     0.31=P(~T) 
sum   0.70  0.30     1.00
      =P(P)  =P(~P)

therefore
P(P|~T)=P(P n ~T)/P(~T)=0.03/0.31   [ both read off the contingency table ]
=0.0968

Help!! whats the answer? and how do I solve!! :(
Sever21 [200]
I think the answer is 20.25 because when solving for the area of a triangle you do 1/2 base times height and so the equation would be
1/2(9)(4.5)
you would start by doing 9(4.5) which equals 40.5
then you would divide by 1/2 which equals 20.25
hope this helps:)
