Your 80 year-old uncle goes to the doctor and says he has a positive test for prostate cancer. He comes to you and says, "You are studying math and statistics. I heard there can be false positive tests." What is the chance I actually have prostate cancer, based on my positive test? Show how you would find this probability, and then explain to him what the answer means. (Remember, you are looking at the probability of a false positive, out of all of the total positive tests)

In a test for esp (extrasensory perception), the experimenter looks at cards that are hidden from the subject. each card contains either a star, a circle, a wave, a cross or a square.(five shapes) as the experimenter looks at each of 20 cards in turn, the subject names the shape on the card. when the esp study described above discovers a subject whose performance appears to be better than guessing, the study continues at greater length. the experimenter looks at many cards bearing one of five shapes (star, square, circle, wave, and cross) in an order determined by random numbers. the subject cannot see the experimenter as he looks at each card in turn, in order to avoid any possible nonverbal clues. the answers of a subject who does not have esp should be independent observations, each with probability 1/5 of success. we record 1000 attempts. which of the following assumptions must be met in order to solve this problem? it's reasonable to assume normality 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)%30 approximately normal 0.8(1000), 0.2(1000)% 10 approximately normal srs it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 10,000 it is reasonable to assume the total number of cards is over 1000

Which is a logical conclusion based on the given information? a. figure abcd is a rhombus by the definition of a rhombus. b. segment ac is congruent to segment dc by cpctc. c. angle acb is congruent to angle adc by the angle-side-angle theorem. d. triangle acd is congruent to triangle cab by the hypotenuse-leg theorem.
