Question

In a group of 50 people 28% of them has flue shots done. What is the probability to choose from this group 15 people that didn't have flue shot.

Answer 1

Answer:

0.0025 = 0.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to find how many people don't have flue shots.

28% of 50 is equal to 0.28 * 50 = 14 people.

If 14 people have flue shots, we have 50 - 14 = 36 people that don't have flue shots.

Now, to solve this problem, the probability will be the cases where  we have a group of people that don't have flue shots (that is, a combination of 36 choose 15) over the total cases (combination of 50 choose 15):

C(36,15) / C(50,15) = (36!/15!*21!) / (50!/15!*35!) = 0.0025 = 0.25%
