A representative from the National Football League's Marketing Division randomly selects people on a random street in Kansas Cit

Orlov [11]

Using the binomial distribution, we have that:

a) 0.1024 = 10.24% probability that the marketing representative must select 4 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

b) 0.2621 = 26.21% probability that the marketing representative must select more than 6 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

c) The expected number of people is 4, with a variance of 20.

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they attended a game, or they did not. The probability of a person attending a game is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial distribution is used.

Binomial probability distribution

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}$

The parameters are:

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

n is the number of trials.

p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

The expected number of <u>trials before q successes</u> is given by:

$E = \frac{q(1-p)}{p}$

The variance is:

$V = \frac{q(1-p)}{p^2}$

In this problem, 0.2 probability of a finding a person who attended the last football game, thus $p = 0.2$ .

Item a:

None of the first three attended, which is P(X = 0) when n = 3.
Fourth attended, with 0.2 probability.

Thus:

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{3,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{3} = 0.512$

$0.2(0.512) = 0.1024$

0.1024 = 10.24% probability that the marketing representative must select 4 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

Item b:

This is the probability that none of the first six went, which is P(X = 0) when n = 6.

$P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}$

$P(X = 0) = C_{6,0}.(0.2)^{0}.(0.8)^{6} = 0.2621$

0.2621 = 26.21% probability that the marketing representative must select more than 6 people to find one who attended the last home football game.

Item c:
