Question

The CDC (Center for Disease Control) did a study to see if there is an association between lung cancer and exposure to asbestos (this data set has been made up. However, my understanding is that the association has already been proven). The doctors at the CDC took a SRS of 20 people with lung cancer and a SRS of 30 people without lung cancer. Suppose the incidence of lung cancer is 1 out of every 1000 people (I made this number up).

Let C = a randomly selected person has lung cancer
Let E = a randomly selected person has been exposed to asbestos

Use 3 decimal places for the following questions.

P(C | E) =
