Answer:

So, the probability is P=0.094.

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that in a recent survey, 73% of the community favored building a police substation in their neighborhood.

We get that p=0.73 and q=1-0.73=0.27.  

We calculate the probability that exactly 8 of them favor the building of the police substation, if 14 citizens are chosen.

We get that n=14 and k=8.

We calculate the probability:

P=C_k^n\cdot p^k\cdot q^{n-k}\\\\P=C_8^{14}\cdot 0.73^8\cdot 0.27^6\\\\P=3003\cdot 0.00003124\\\\P=0.094\\

So, the probability is P=0.094.

In a survey of 364 children aged 19-36 months, it was found that 91 liked to eat potato chips. If a child is selected at random,
n200080 [17]

Answer: 0.75

Step-by-step explanation:

A survey of 364 children aged 19-36 months found that 91 liked to eat potato chips.

Total children surveyed= 364

Those that like to eat potato chips= 91

Those that don't like to eat potato chips= 364 - 91 = 273

Probability that the child chosen doesn't like to eat potato chips will be children that don't like to eat potato chips divided by total number of children surveyed.

= 273/364

= 0.75
