Question 930911: in a certain district, the chance of getting influenza is 0.01 among adults and 0.1 among seniors and children. it is known that 90% of the population are adults. determine (i)the probability that a randomly selected person is infected,and (ii)given that a person is infected, the conditional probability that he/she is an adult. Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! p(adult/flu) = .01, p(SR & children / flu) = .10
..........
90% of population Adults
......
a randomly selected person
P(infected) = = .019
P(inf |adult) = = .009
