Pimples have a variety of causes, one of which is a bacterial infection in the oil gland at the base of a hair follicle in the s

kin. Maria found that when she washed her face with soap and cool water twice a day, she ended up with more pimples than when she simply rinsed it with cool water twice a day. Which of the following is the best explanation for this?
She was not rinsing all the soap off her skin when she used it, and it clogged her pores, causing pimples to form.
The soap removed her skin's natural oils which can kill bacteria, while the cool water left the oil on her skin.

A pharmacist receives a shipment of 22 bottles of a drug and has 4 of the bottles tested. If 6 of the 22 bottles are contaminate

Explanation:

A hypergeometric distribution as a function of statistical distribution where members from two groups are analysed,  without replacing those members. Unlike binomial distributions, in which the probability remains the same for each trial, in hypergeometric distributions, these members are not replaced- each trial's probability affects the probability within next trial.

This is used in the process of random sampling and as a means of quality control in statistics; for example selecting members of a sports team from a mixed population of boys and girls.

Hypergeometric Formula..,

For a population consisting of N items, k are successes. And a random sample from that population consisting of n items, x of which are successes.

∴ hypergeometric probability is:

h(x; N, n, k) = [ kCx ] [ N-kCn-x ] / [ NCn ]

this distribution always has... 

  • its mean=  n * k / N .
  • its variance  is n * k * ( N - k ) * ( N - n ) /  [ N2 * ( N - 1 ) ] .

Thus….

Total number of bottles =  22

Number of contaminated bottles = 6

Number of tested bottles = 4

X= a random variable representing the number of contaminated bottles selected for the test.

N = 22

K = 6

n = 4

The probability mass function, f(x), is given by...

P(X=x)) = [ kCx] [ N-kCn-x ] / [ NCn ]    x= 0,1,2,3,...,n

           = \frac{[6 C 1] [22-6 C 4-1]}{[22 C 4]}

OR          

\frac{C\left \ {{k=6} \atop {x=1}} \right.   C\left \ {{22-6} \atop {4-1}} \right. }{C \left \ {22} \atop {4}} \right. }

Cxk= C14= 4!(1!(4 - 1)!)^{-1}= 24(6)^{-1}= 4\\Cn-xN-k=C\left \ {{22-6} \atop {4-1}} \right. } =16!(4!(16-4)!)^{-1}\\(CnN)^{-1}=(C \left \ {{y=22} \atop {x=6}} \right. ) ^{-1}=[22!(6!(22-6)!)^{-1}]^{-1}

f(x)= p= P(X=1)=0.45933014354067

P(that more than 1 of the tested bottles is contaminated);

P(X>1)=1−P(X≤1)=1−(P(X=0)+P(X=2))

                P(X>1)=0.291866028708134

Probability that one is contaminated: 0.4593(4 dec places)

Probability that more than one is contaminated: 0.2919 (4 dec places)
