Answer:

The required probability is 0.0155.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the one-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer is 20%.

Of 12 people diagnosed with pancreatic cancer at one hospital, 6 survived one year.

The above situation can be represented through binomial distribution;

$P(X=r) = \binom{n}{r} \times p^{r} \times (1-p)^{n-r} ; x = 0,1,2,3,......$

where, n = number of trials (samples) taken = 12 people

r = number of success = 6 survived

p = probability of success which in our question is probability of

one-year survival rate for pancreatic cancer, i.e; p = 20%

Let X = Number of people survived one year

So, X ~ Binom(n = 12 , p = 0.20)

Now, the probability that 6 survived one year is given by = P(X = 6)

P(X = 6) = $\binom{12}{6} \times 0.20^{6} \times (1-0.20)^{12-6}$

= $924 \times 0.20^{6} \times 0.80^{6}$

= 0.0155

Not sure how to do this

OLEGan [10]

It's pretty simple! So it looks like you are learning proportions. You would cross multiply to achieve your answer.

First, let's do your first problem:

2 12
--- = ----
5 n

You would take 5 and multiply it by 12 and get 60! Then you would do the same with 2 times n, giving you 2n (because you do not know what n represents YET.)

Now you should have this:
60=2n OR 2n=60

We must isolate our variable, in order to do that, get rid of two! But how? You would do this by dividing 2n by 2. Yet in equations, when you do something to one side, you must do it to the other because they must be EQUAL! (hence the "equa-" in equation)

2n=60
--- ---
2 2 DIVIDE 2 into 60
----------
n= 30 Simplify!

Your final answer for the first question is n= 30!
