A diagnostic test has a probability 0.95 of giving a positive result when applied to a person suffering from a certain disease, and a probability 0.10 of giving a (false) positive when applied to a non-sufferer. It is estimated that 0.1 % of the population are sufferers. Suppose that the test is now administered to a person about whom we have no relevant information relating to the disease (apart from the fact that he/she comes from this population). Calculate the following probabilities:

(a) that the test result will be positive
(b) that, given a positive result, the person is a sufferer
(c) that, given a negative result, the person is a non-sufferer
(d) that the person will be misclassified
