According to an article, 47% of adults have experienced a breakup at least once during the last 10 years. Of 9 randomly select

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

a) $P(X=5)=(9C5)(0.47)^5 (1-0.47)^{9-5}=0.228$

b) $P(X=0)=(9C0)(0.47)^0 (1-0.47)^{9-0}=0.0033$

And replacing we got:

$P(X \geq 1)= 1-P(X$

c) $P(X=4)=(9C4)(0.47)^4 (1-0.47)^{9-4}=0.257$

$P(X=5)=(9C5)(0.47)^5 (1-0.47)^{9-5}=0.228$

$P(X=6)=(9C6)(0.47)^6 (1-0.47)^{9-6}=0.135$

And adding we got:

$P(4 \leq X \leq 6)= 0.257+0.228+0.135=0.620$

Step-by-step explanation:

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".

Solution to the problem

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:

$X \sim Binom(n=9, p=0.47)$
