Refer to the sample data for polygraph tests shown below. If one of the test subjects is randomly selected, what is the probability that the subject is not lying? Is the result close to the probability of 0.473 for a negative test result? Did the Subject Actually Lie? No (Did Not Lie) Yes (Lied) Positive test results 10 39 Negative test results 37 7 The probability that a randomly selected polygraph test subject was not lying is (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) Is the result close to the probability, rounded to three decimal places, of 0.473 for a negative test result? because there is a 0.050 absolute difference between the probability of a true response and the probability of a negative test result.
