Can Bayes' Rule be used to solve the following problem? If so, do it. If not, explain why not in a way that shows an understanding of the conditions under which Bayes' rule can be used. A lie detector machine named Bogus is 95% accurate in determining when someone is lying. (Pay attention to this: To lie, in this context, means to say something you believe to be false.) Bogus is being used on a population in which the base rate for lying is 5%. Ricky has just just answered "Yes" to the question: Has your wife ever committed a felony? Bogus says Ricky is lying. Given Bogus' answer, what is the likelihood that Ricky's wife actually has committed a felony?
5. Imagine that you are studying for this final under a different set of instructions. You have been told that 4 of these questions will appear on the final, that you have to write on all four questions, and that they are worth 10 points each. There is a 40% chance of any particular question being on the final. You particularly hate this question #5. You don't want to study for it, but you know that you can't BS it either. You conclude that if you don't study for #5, you'll get no points on it, and if you do study for #5 you'll get all 10 points. But you hate the thought of studying for this question so much that you'd be willing to sacrifice 4 points if you didn't have to do it. (In other words, the act of studying itself is worth a negative 4 points.) What is the expected value of studying for this question? What is the expected value of not studying for this question? Should you study for it or not?
Consider the following theory: The universe and everything in it was created by a Supreme Being. Can this theory be made subject to the scientific process of confirmation/disconfirmation? Explain why or why not by comparison to one that can. What do you think your conclusions imply about the rationality of accepting such a theory?
Concider this statement: "In science there is no conclusive proof or disproof of a theory." We will define "theory" as "any statement about the external world." It follows, therefore, that there is no conclusive scientific proof that chickens have wings. Is this correct? If so, what does it imply about the value of science? If not, why not?
