We roll a fair die repeatedly until we see the number four appear and then we stop. The outcome of the experiment is the number
muminat

Answer:

0

Step-by-step explanation:

given that we roll a fair die repeatedly until we see the number four appear and then we stop.

the number 4 can appear either in I throw, or II throw or .... indefinitely

So X = the no of throws can be from 1 to infinity

This is a discrete distribution countable.

Sample space= {1,2,.....}

b) Prob ( 4 never appears) = Prob (any other number appears in all throws)

= \frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *\frac{5}{6} *...\\=(\frac{5}{6} )^n

where n is the number of throws

As n tends to infinity, this becomes 0 because 5/6 is less than 1.

Hence this probability is approximately 0

Or definitely 4 will appear atleast once.

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

a) The minimum sample size is 601.

b) The minimum sample size is 2401.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a sample with a number n of people surveyed with a probability of a success of \pi, and a confidence level of 1-\alpha, we have the following confidence interval of proportions.

\pi \pm z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

In which

z is the zscore that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{\alpha}{2}.

The margin of error is:

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

For this problem, we have that:

We dont know the true proportion, so we use \pi = 0.5, which is when we are are going to need the largest sample size.

95% confidence level

So \alpha = 0.05, z is the value of Z that has a pvalue of 1 - \frac{0.05}{2} = 0.975, so Z = 1.96.

a. If a 95% confidence interval with a margin of error of no more than 0.04 is desired, give a close estimate of the minimum sample size that will guarantee that the desired margin of error is achieved. (Remember to round up any result, if necessary.)

This is n for which M = 0.04. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.04 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}

0.04\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.04}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.04})^2

n = 600.25

Rounding up

The minimum sample size is 601.

b. If a 95% confidence interval with a margin of error of no more than 0.02 is desired, give a close estimate of the minimum sample size necessary to achieve the desired margin of error.

Now we want n for which M = 0.02. So

M = z\sqrt{\frac{\pi(1-\pi)}{n}}

0.02 = 1.96\sqrt{\frac{0.5*0.5}{n}}

0.02\sqrt{n} = 1.96*0.5

\sqrt{n} = \frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02}

(\sqrt{n})^2 = (\frac{1.96*0.5}{0.02})^2

n = 2401

The minimum sample size is 2401.
