a) Assuming that 0.5% of the population of 1,000,000 people carries HIV, how many such carriers
are there in the population? How many non-carriers are there? Record these values in the table in
Cells C and F, respectively.
b) Consider for now just the carriers. If 97.7% of them test positive, how many test positive? How
many carriers does that leave who test negative? Record these values in the table in Cells A and B,
respectively.
c) Now consider only the non-carriers. If 92.6% of them test negative, how many test negative?
How many non-carriers does that leave who test positive? Record these values in the table in Cells
E and D, respectively.
d) Determine the total number of positive test results and the total number of negative test results.
Record these values in the appropriate places within the table.

Expert Solution
Step 1

(a)

Given that the population is,

N= 1,000,000

The percentage of people carries HIV is,      0.5%

The total number of people Carries HIV from the population of 1,000,000 is,

=1000000*0.5%

=1000000*0.005

= 5000

The percentage of people does not carries HIV is ,

= 100-0.5%=99.5%

The total number of people does not Carries HIV from the population of 1,000,000 is,

=1000000*99.5%

=1000000*0.995

= 995000

The cells C and f are filled in the table below.

  Positive test Negative test Totals
Carries HIV cell A cell B  5000
Does not Carries HIV cell D cellE  995000
Totals cell G cell H 1000000
