If we write all the possible combinations for this problem, 4/16 or 1/4 would be the answer.

This is not taking into consideration the specific order of the children. In case the order will be necessary, the Girls need to be labeled differently and permutation formula needs to be used.

24% of U.S. adults say they are more likely to make purchases during a sales tax holiday. you randomly select 10 adults. find th
neonofarm [45]

Answer:

a) p(X= 2) = 0.261

b) P(x>2) = 0.566

c) P(2<x<5)  = 0.334

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 24% of U.S. adults say they are more likely to make purchases during a sales tax holiday

Probability 0f U.S. adults say they are more likely to make purchases during a sales tax holiday (p) = 0.24

                            n = 10

By using Poisson distribution

mean number of make purchases during a sales tax holiday

λ = np = 10 X 0.24 = 2.4

a)

The probability of getting exactly '2'

The probability p(X= 2) = e^{-\alpha } \frac{\alpha^r }{r! }

p(X= 2) = e^{2.4 } \frac{\(2.4)^2 }{2! }

p(X= 2) = e^{2.4 } \frac{\(2.4)^2 }{2! }= 0.261

b) The probability of getting more than '2'

P(X>2) = 1- {p(x=0)+p(x=1)+p(x=2)}

                = e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^0 }{0! }+ e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^1 }{1!}+e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^2 }{2!}

              = 0.090 + 0.2177+0.261 = 0.566

P(x>2) = 0.566

c) The probability of getting between  two and five

P( 2<x<5) = P(x=3)+p(x=4) == e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^3 }{3! }+ e^{-2.4 } \frac{(2.4)\^4 }{4!}+

P(2<x<5) = 0.2090 + 0.125 = 0.334
