Explain why is 1/5 bigger than 0.15

1 answer:

8 0

1/5 is greater because it equals 0.2

0.2 has an imaginary 0 at the end, to make it 0.20

.20 > 0.15

Therefore, 1/5 is greater than 0.15

[6+4=10 points] Problem 2. Suppose that there are k people in a party with the following PMF: • k = 5 with probability 1 4 • k =

kirza4 [7]

Answer:

1). 0.903547

2). 0.275617

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given :

K people in a party with the following :

i). k = 5 with the probability of $\frac{1}{4}$

ii). k = 10 with the probability of $\frac{1}{4}$

iii). k = 10 with the probability $\frac{1}{2}$

So the probability of at least two person out of the 'n' born people in same month is = 1 - P (none of the n born in the same month)

= 1 - P (choosing the n different months out of 365 days) = $1-\frac{_{n}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^2}$

1). Hence P(at least 2 born in the same month)=P(k=5 and at least 2 born in the same month)+P(k=10 and at least 2 born in the same month)+P(k=15 and at least 2 born in the same month)

= $\frac{1}{4}\times (1-\frac{_{5}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^5})+\frac{1}{4}\times (1-\frac{_{10}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^{10}})+\frac{1}{2}\times (1-\frac{_{15}^{12}\textrm{P}}{12^{15}})$
