The ELISA test was an early test used to screen blood donations for antibodies to HIV. A study (Weiss et al. 1985) found that the conditional probability that a person would test positive given they have HIV was 0.979 and the conditional probability that a person would test negative given they did not have HIV was 0.919. The World Almanac gives an estimate of the probability of a person 15 years or older in the United States of America having HIV of 0.005.Suppose a random person is tested and they test positive. What is the conditional probability that this person has HIV given that they test positive

Prove (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1 and (b) 1 − tanh 2(x) = sech 2(x). solution (a) cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = ex + e−x 2 2 − 2 = e2x + 2 + e−2x 4 − = 4 = . (b) we start with the identity proved in part (a): cosh2(x) − sinh2(x) = 1. if we divide both sides by cosh2(x), we get 1 − sinh2(x) cosh2(x) = 1 or 1 − tanh 2(x) = .
