Question 1000844: In a large group of Americans in 2001-2002, the probability of visiting a doctor's office in the past 12 months was 0.80.
(a) For two randomly chosen Americans in 2001-2002, what is the probability of at least one of them (either the first and not the second, or the second and not the first, or both) visiting a doctor that year? (Round your answer to two decimal places.)
