Based on the accuracy of the test and the probability of Kevin having the disease, the following are true:

  • Probability that Kevin has diabetes and the test predicts this = 0.6375.
  • Probability that Kevin has diabetes and the test doesn't predicts this = 0.1125.
  • Probability that Kevin doesn't have diabetes and the test predicts this = 0.2125.
  • Probability that Kevin doesn't have diabetes and the test doesn't predicts this = 0.0375.

Probability that Kevin has diabetes and the test predicts this

= Probability that Kevin has diabetes x Accuracy of test

= 0.75 x 0.85

= 0.6375

Probability that Kevin has diabetes and the test doesn't predicts this

= Probability that Kevin has diabetes x (1 - Accuracy of test )

= 0.75 x ( 1 - 0.85)

= 0.1125

Probability that Kevin doesn't have diabetes and the test predicts this

= Probability that Kevin doesn't have diabetes x Accuracy of test

= ( 1 - 0.75) x 0.85

= 0.2125

Probability that Kevin doesn't have diabetes and the test doesn't predicts this

= Probability that Kevin doesn't have diabetes x (1 - Accuracy of test )

= ( 1 - 0.75) x (1 - 0.85)

= 0.0375

In conclusion, the probability depends on the accuracy of the test and the probability of having diabetes.
