<h1>Statistical Inference</h1>
<h1>Question 1</h1>
<p>When at the free-throw line for two shots, a basketball player makes at least one free throw 90% of the time. 80% of the time, the player makes the first shot, 80% of the time the player makes the second shot and 70% of the time she makes both shots. What is the conditional probability that the player makes the second shot given that she missed the first? Express your answer as a percentage to the nearest percentage point.</p>
<h1>Question 2</h1>
<p>A web site (<a href="http://www.medicine.ox.ac.uk/bandolier/band64/b64-7.html">www.medicine.ox.ac.uk/bandolier/band64/b64-7.html</a>) for home pregnancy tests cites the following: “When the subjects using the test were women who collected and tested their own samples, the overall sensitivity was 75%. Specificity was also low, in the range 52% to 75%.” Assume the lower value for the specificity. Suppose a subject has a positive test and that 30% of women taking pregnancy tests are actually pregnant. What number is closest to the probability of pregnancy given the positive test? Express your answer to the nearest percentage point.</p>
