Math Problem Statement
Use the following results from a test for marijuana use, which is provided by a certain drug testing company. Among
144144
subjects with positive test results, there are
2525
false positive results; among
155155
negative results, there are
44
false negative results. If one of the test subjects is randomly selected, find the probability that the subject tested negative or did not use marijuana.
