The probability of obtaining at least 1 false positive if the number of employees is 500 is 0.5

Probability

In the statistics concept, the probability refers the possible number of way of happening the particular event.

Given,

A test for a certain drug has a 0.1% probability of producing a false positive.

Here we need to find  the probability of obtaining at least 1 false positive if  a company hired 500 drug-free employees.

In the given question, we have the following values,

=> number of employees = 500

=> Probability of false positive = 0.1%

So, the probability of obtaining at least 1 false positive is calculated as,

=> 500 x 0.1/100

=> 5 x 0.1

=> 0.5

Therefore, the probability of obtaining at least 1 false positive is 0.5.

What is the solution to the system of equations. 2x-y=7 y=2x+3
OLEGan [10]
To solve this, you can substitute the second equation into the first.

It becomes 2x-(2x+3)=7

Solve from here!

You get -3=7. Not possible. Therefore there is no solution to this system.

System is inconsistent. Hope this helps.
