Two new tests (A and B) have been developed to diagnose gout. The following tables provide information on the number of individuals testing positive or negative and their true status: Calculate the sensitivity, specificity, and positive predictive values for both tests. b) Imagine a situation where the consequences of false negative test results are worse than a false positive test. For example, patients that have gout but test negative may not be treated properly and develop other complications. Which test would you use in this situation? Why?

I asked this question before but the solution was not correct and I'm really trying to figure out how to do this to get the correct answer. Please show work!DNA typing is used to compare evidence DNA (E) left at a crime scene to two suspects(S1 and S2). Suspect 1 is excluded by the evidence, but suspect 2 remains included. What isthe frequency of suspect 2's genotype if the allelic frequencies in the population are f(A1) =0.1, f(A2) = 0.2, and f(A3) = 0.7, and the population is at Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium?The answer is 0.49.
