At any given time about 5.5% of women (age 15-45) are pregnant. A home pregnancy test is accurate 99% of the time if the woman taking the test is actually pregnant and 99.5% accurate if the woman is not pregnant. If the test yields a positive result, what is the posterior probability of the hypothesis that the woman is pregnant?
