Question

2. What is the probability of selling between and including one and four silver cars? Interpret this probability in context.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.72868

Problem Statement:

23% of the cars a certain automaker manufactures are silver. Below is the probability distribution for the number of

silver cars sold by a car dealer in the next five car sales.

No. of  Silver Cars    0             1             2              3              4             5

Probability         0.27068   0.40426  0.24151  0.07214  0.01077  0.00064

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the probability that the dealer sells between one and four silver cars, we need to add the probabilities of him selling 1,2,3 or 4 cars.

Probability that the dealer sells between and including one and four silver cars= 0.27068+ 0.40426  + 0.24151  + 0.07214  =0.72868
