Consider two medical tests, A and B for a virus. Test A is 95% effective at recognizing the virus when it is present but has a 10% false positive rate (indicating that the virus is present, when it is not). Test B is 90% effective at recognizing the virus, but has a 5% false positive rate. The two tests use independent methods of identifying the virus. The virus is carried by 1% of all people. Say that a person is tested for the virus using only one of the tests and that test comes back positive for carrying the virus. Which test returning positive is more indicative of someone really carrying the virus?

7. design a circuit with three inputs (x, y, and z) representing the bits in a binary number, and three outputs (a, b, and c) also representing bits in a binary number. when the input is 1, 2, or 3, the binary output should be one lesser than the input. when the input is 4, 5, or 6, the binary output should be one greater than the input. when the input is 0, the output is 0, and when the input is 7, the output is 7. show your truth table, all computations for simplification, and the final circuit.
