standard_description: Understand that statistics can be used to gain information about a population by examining a sample of the population; generalizations about a population from a sample are valid only if the sample is representative of that population. Understand that random sampling tends to produce representative samples and support valid inferences.

Problem 2
In a certain population, 30% of people get a particular disease. A test was developed to determine if any given person has the disease, but it isn’t perfect.
The test has a 90% chance of accurately predicting that someone has a disease, BUT it also has a 5% chance of predicting someone has this disease who doesn’t.
Below are two models you can use to visualize this situation.
[IMG]
Using the information from the problem, write in the number of people in a random sample of 2,000 who take the test for the disease and get results that are true positive, false positive, true negative, and false negative.
