Answer:
The probability that none will have high blood pressure is 0.0281
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct question is as follows;
Twenty percent of Americans ages 25 to 74 have high blood pressure. If 16 randomly selected Americans ages 25 to 74 are selected, find each probablility. a. None will have high blood pressure
This is a binomial problem. We shall solve in that line
The probability of success is 20% or 0.2 [(Americans ages 25 to 74 have high blood pressure)] p = 0.2
The probability of failure q is thus 1-p = 1-0.2 = 0.8
The probability of none is thus;
P(X= 0) = 16C0 p^0 q^16
= 16C0 * 0.2^0 * 0.8^16 = 0.0281
Convert the denominator of the first two fractions to 24 since 3 and 8 can fit into 24.
3/8=9/24
2/3=16/24
Now add them together.
9/24+16/24=25/24
Next add the second two fractions 9/24 and 16/24.
9/24+16/24=25/24
Since all fractions equal 25/24, the equation was true!
Hope this helps!
