probability that a woman with breast cancer gets a negative result is 0.0015. Select one woman
from this population at random.
(a) Express the provided information using probability notation.
(b) Display the provided information using a tree diagram. Then calculate the probabilities of
each of the four possible outcomes.
(c) Calculate the probability that a randomly selected woman from this population tests
positive.
