Suppose a particular type of cancer has a 1.2% incidence rate.Let D be the event that a person has this type of cancer, thereforeP(D)=0.012. A test for this type of cancer has a false positiverate of 9%. The test correctly confirms the presence of the cancerwith an accuracy of 94%. Suppose that the test indicates that aperson has cancer. What is the probability that the person actuallydoes have cancer? Round your answer to four decimal places, ifnecessary.
