Answer:
0.01260
Step-by-step explanation:
Data:
probability of population with cancer (positive) = 0.21
probability of population with cancer (negative) = 0.79
probability of population with cancer absent (positive) = 0.06
probability of population with cancer absent (negative) = 0.94
probility for positive test = P( cancer (positive)) × P ( cancer absent (positive)
= [tex]= (0.21) * (0.06)\\= 0.01260[/tex]
