Conditional probability equations


Assume that 2 out of every 1000 people have a particular disease. A test has been developed to detect this disease. Assume that this test has a sensitivity of .95 and a specificity of .98. If you test this disease then:

1. Using a tree diagram, what is the probability that you actually do have this disease?

2. Using the conditional probability equations, what is the probability that you actually do have this disease.
