Suppose the probability that both members of a married couple, each of whom is 75-79 years of age, will have Alzheimer's disease is .0015. 3.23 What is the conditional probability that the man will be affected given that the woman is affected? How does this value compare with the prevalence in Table 3.5? Why should it be the same (or different)? 3.24 What is the conditional probability that the woman will be affected given that the man is affected? How does this value compare with the prevalence in Table 3.5? Why should it be the same (or different)? 3.25 What is the probability that at least one member of the couple is affected? Suppose a study of Alzheimer's disease is proposed in a retirement community with people 65+ years of age, where the age-gender distribution is as shown in Table 3.6. 3.26 What is the expected overall prevalence of Alzheim- er's disease in the community if the prevalence estimates in Table 3.5 for specific age-gender groups hold? 3.27 Assuming there are 1000 people 65+ years of age in the community, what is the expected number of cases of Alzheimer's disease in the community
