Answer:

The standard deviation of this distribution is 0.8850.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each U.S. mortgage in the sample, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it is delinquent, or it is not. The probabilities of each mortgages being delinquent are independent from one another. So we use the binomial probability distribution to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}

11% of U.S. mortgages were delinquent last year.

This means that p = 0.11

A random sample of eight mortgages was selected. What is standard deviation of this distribution?

This is \sqrt{V(X)} when n = 8

\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{8*0.11*0.89} = 0.8850

The standard deviation of this distribution is 0.8850.

timurjin [86]

Answer:

Option B.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two events are said to be independent of each other, if the probability of one event ocurrin in not way affects the probability of the other event occurring.

The interception of two independent events P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B), where:

P(A) = 0.70

P(B) = 0.20

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B) = 0.70x0.20 = 0.14

The two events are independent if the probability of buying Bread AND cheese equals: 0.14, which is Option B.
