A pharmaceutical company is developing a new test for gluten intolerance. The company is working to lower the "false positive rate" which is currently 23%. A false positive test result occurs when the test indicates someone is gluten intolerant, but in reality they are not. If 2 volunteers were randomly selected to take the test, what is the probability that more than 0 will receive a false positive result? Write your answer as a decimal rounded to the nearest thousandth.

Answer:

If I'm not wrong, I think it's 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because if the false posative rate 23% and there are 2 people, you would find 23% of 2, which gives you 0.46.  Rounded, this is 0.5. So there is  a 0.5% probability that more than 0 valenteers will get false posative results.
