Calculate the approximate probability that at least 2 children have been diagnosed with ASD among the 200 selected children.

Answer:

The approximate probability that at least 2 children have been diagnosed with ASD among the 200 selected children is

0.01 or 1%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of selected children = 200

The probability of no child been diagnosed with ASD = P(None) = 198/200 = 0.99

Therefore, the probability of at least two children been diagnosed with ASD = 1 - 0.99 = 0.01.

This is the same as:

If 2 children have been diagnosed with ASD,

therefore, the approximate probability that at least 2 children have been diagnosed is:

2/200 = 0.01.  This value is equal to 1%.

The above are summed up in:

The probability of at least one = 1/200 = 0.05

Therefore, the probability of at least two = 0.05 * 2 = 0.01

b) Generally, to find the probability of at least one event happening, we calculate the probability of none and then subtract that result from 1. That is, P(at least one) = 1 – P(none).  For two events happening, the sum of the probability of at least one in two places is deducted from 1 to get the probability of at least two.

We have to find the expected value for the PlayBall lottery. 
The price of the ticket = $1
Prize amount = $250
If a player wins, he will be winning $249 as the price is not paid back along with the prize amount. He is spending $1, getting back $250, so the net amount he is getting back is $249.

Now we have to find the probability of winning and losing.

Number of letters from A to T = 20
Number of digits from 0 to 9 = 10

Probability of picking up the same letter that was picked on that day = 1/20
Probability of picking up the same number that was picked on that day = 1/10

Thus, the Probability of picking up the same letter and same number that was picked on that day = \frac{1}{20}* \frac{1}{10}= \frac{1}{200}

Thus, the probability of winning = 1/200

The probability of losing = 1- \frac{1}{200}=\frac{199}{200}

The expected value E for the PlayBall lottery will be:

E= \frac{1}{200}(249)- \frac{199}{200}(1) \\  \\ 
E= \frac{1}{4}  \\  \\ 
E=0.25

Thus, the option C gives the correct answer
