See attachment below for table and answer choices :-)

Answer 1

The correct answer is:

0.13

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the two-way table, we focus on the column labeled "Positive Test." There are 78+12 = 90 people who had a positive test. Out of these, 12 were not pregnant. This is a probability of 12/90 = 0.133333 = 0.13.

Answer 2

First we need to choose from "Posivite Test" column:

`(12)/(12+78) = (12)/(90) = 0,1333(3)`
