Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Previous concepts
The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".
2) Solution to the problem
The probability in favor of the regulation based on the recent survey is:
Let X the random variable of interest "Number of favor respondents about the regulation", on this case we now that:
The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:
Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:
And we want to find this probability:
If we use X= "Number of respondednts opposed to the regulation we got the same answer", but on this case p = 1-0.68=0.32, and we want this probability:
<h3>Answer: 33%</h3>
===========================================================
Explanation:
1/3 converts to the decimal form 0.333333... where the 3's go on forever
5/3 is a similar story but 5/3 = 1.666666.... where the '6's go on forever
The notation indicates that the 6's go on forever.
So,
The horizontal bar tells us which digits repeat. As another example,
The three dots just mean "keep this pattern going forever".
----------
Everything mentioned so far has the decimal portions go on forever repeating some pattern over and over.
The only one that doesn't do this is 33% which converts to the decimal form 0.33
The value 0.33 is considered a terminating decimal since "terminate" means "stop". So this is the value that doesn't fit in with the other three items mentioned.
