Ex. A group of research scientists collect 2000 water samples from drinking water in Central Arizona. They test those samples for a certain chemical. The test isn’t 100% accurate. If the sample contains the chemical, it will show a positive test result 93% of the time. If the sample does not contain the chemical, it gives a negative result 97% of the time. If 170 groundwater samples contain chemicals, what is the probability the sample contains a chemical if you have a positive test return for the sample
