Question

Sixty- five percent of men consider themselves knowledgeable football fans.

Answer 1

Answer: d) 0.238

Step-by-step explanation:

We would assume binomial distribution for the number of men sampled. The formula for binomial distribution is expressed as

P(x =r) = nCr × q^(n - r) × p^r

Where

p represents the probability of success.

q represents the probability of failure.

n represents the number of samples.

From the information given,

n = 10

p = 65% = 65/100 = 0.65

q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.65 = 0.35

The probability that exactly six of them will consider themselves knowledgeable fans is expressed as P(x = 6). It becomes

P(x =6) = 10C6 × 0.35^(10 - 6) × 0.65^6

P(x =6) = 10C6 × 0.35^4 × 0.65^6

P(x =6) = 0.238
