Most medical tests are not completely accurate. For example, a microscopy test for tuberculosis comes out positive with probability 0.01 when the tested individual doesn't actually have tuberculosis. It comes out negative with probability 0.2 when the tested individual does have tuberculosis. Find the probability a randomly chosen individual will test positive if the proportion of tuberculosis in the population is 0.72. Round your answer to five decimal places.
