I have the following table with predictive probabilities and true class labels:
beginarray
hline
P(T=1) &0.54& 0.23 & 0.78 & 0.88 & 0.26 & 0.41 & 0.90 & 0.45&0.19&0.36 \ hline
T&1&0 &0 &1 &0 &0& 1& 1& 0& 0\ hline
endarray
The question is to compute the specificity & sensitivity at the threshold of 0.5.
My attempt at answering this question:
Sensitivity = true positive rate[P(T=1) > 0.5]
= (0.54 + 0.88 + 0.9)/4 = 0.58
Specificity = 1-false positive rate[P(T=1) > 0.5]
= 1- [(0.78)/6]
= 0.87
Not sure if my working above is correct. I would appreciate if someone can guide me to the correct solution. Thanks.

For threshold = $0.5$ we have:
Sensitivity = True Positive Rate
= (number of points with label $1$ and $P(T = 1)geq 0.5$) divided by (number of points with label $1$)
= $left|(1, 0.54), (1, 0.88), (1, 0.90)right| / 4$ = $3/4$ = $0.75$
Specificity = 1 - False Positive Rate
= 1 - (number of points with label $0$ and $P(T = 1)geq 0.5$) divided by (number of points with label $0$)
= $1 - left|(0, 0.78)right|/6$ = $1 - 1/6$ = $0.833$
