Question
Refer to the sample data for polygraph tests shown below. If one of the test subjects is randomly selected, what is the probability that the subject is not lying? Is the
result close to the probability of 0.430 for a negative test result?
Did the Subject Actually Lie?
No (Did Not Lie)
Yes (Lied)
Positive test results
12
37
Negative test results
27
10
The probability that a randomly selected polygraph test subject was not lying is
(Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.)
Is the result close to the probability, rounded to three decimal
ces, of 0.430 for a
egative test result?
because there is
a 0.050 absolute difference between the probability of a true response and the probability of a negative test result.

Use the following results from a test for marijuana use, which is provided by a certain drug testing company. Among 143 subjects with positive test results, there are 23
false positive results. Among 151 negative results, there are 5 false negative results. Complete parts (a) through (c). (Hint: Construct a table.)
a. How many subjects were included in the study?
The total number of subjects in the study was
b. How many subjects did not use marijuana?
A total of
subjects did not use marijuana.
c. What is the probability that a randomly selected subject did not use marijuana?
The probability that a randomly selected subject did not use marijuana is.
(Do not round until the final answer. Then round to three decimal places as needed.)
