Explanation / Answer

Question 1 Option C is correct.

Pr(Athlete tested positive and is acctually on steroids) = 0.12 * 0.93/ (0.12 * 0.93 + 0.88 * 0.03) = 0.8087

Question 2

Here option C is correct.

False positive rate = 0.28

False negative rate= 0.22

Pr(Women has positive mamongram has cancer)= 0.02 * (1 - 0.22)/ [0.02 * (1- 0.22) + 0.98 * 0.28] = 0.0156/ 0.29 = 0.0538
