sickle cell disease affects approximately 1 in 15000 hispanic Americans. the test for sickle cell disease has a false positive rate of 0.5% and a false negative rate of 0.1%. if a randomly chosen hispanic American has a positive test result, what is the probability they have sickle cell disease? a) Draw a tree diagram illustrating this situation, include appropriate probabilities within the tree. b) using your tree from part a, find the probability in the question.
