MAT 101 Unit 8 M8A2 Problem Write-up More Genetic Testing

Based on what you learned from the problem you solved with your group, you will submit a written report describing your solution to a similar problem, below. The report is due on the last day of the module (Sunday at 11:59pm).

Instructions:

Answer each of the following questions in your own words. Do not copy and paste or retype the questions themselves into your document, as this will cause unreliable results at Turnitin.com. Simply provide the answers.

Now consider the following:

As in the Module 8 Discussion (M8D1), we will consider the town of Springfield, where there are 100,000 adults. Consider a different genetic disease, which affects only 0.1% of the U.S. population. The test for this disease is also 98% accurate. All the adults in Springfield were also tested for this disease.

  1. Use a table to organize your results, like those in the text (e.g., Table 3.7 on page 175) or like one you or a fellow discussion group member may have employed in the discussion. Include this table in your write-up. While referring to this table, answer the following questions:

    1. How many of the residents of Springfield are likely to have the disease?
    2. How many of the people who actually have the disease get a positive test result?
    3. How many of the people who do not have the disease get a positive test result?
    4. Of the people who get a positive test result, how many of them have the disease? Convert this to a percentage: What percent of people who get a positive result actually have the disease?

  2. Compare your results with the problem you solved in the discussion activity (M8D1). Specifically, focus on the percent of people who get a positive result that actually have the disease. Remember that both genetic tests were 98% accurate. Why were the percentages so different? State a conclusion about how the rarity of a disease affects testing results.
