Many women choose to have annual mammograms to screen for breast cancer after age 40. A mammogram isn’t foolproof. Sometimes the test suggests that a woman has breast cancer when she really doesn’t (a false positive). Other times, the test says that a woman doesn’t have breast cancer when she actually does (a false negative). Suppose one percent of the women age 40 or over in this region have breast cancer. For women who have breast cancer, the probability of a negative mammogram is .03. For women who don’t have breast cancer, the probability of a positive mammogram is .06 A randomly selected woman aged 40 or over from this region tests positive for breast cancer in a mammogram. Find the probability that she actually has breast cancer.
