Answer:
The probability that conservative party wins all 3 seats is 0.216
The probability that conservative party wins exactly two seats is 0.432
Step-by-step explanation:
Consider the provided information.
The probability of a conservative candidate winning is p=0.6.
The probability of one progressive candidate will win is: 1-0.6=0.4
Part (a) What is the probability that the conservative party wins all three seats?
According to binomial distribution:
P(conservative party wins all 3 seats) = 0.216
Hence, the probability that conservative party wins all 3 seats is 0.216
Part (a) What is the probability that the conservative party wins exactly two seats?
Hence, the probability that conservative party wins exactly two seats is 0.432
