2500 -1840 = -660

As a percentage of the original price, that is ...

-660/2500 × 100% = -26.4% . . . . . negative change = decrease

In general, the probability that a blood donor has Type A blood is 0.40.Consider 8 randomly chosen blood donors, what is the pro

postnew [5]

Answer:

The probability that more than half of them have Type A blood in the sample of 8 randomly chosen donors is P(X>4)=0.1738.

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be modeled as a binomial random variable with n=8 and p=0.4.

The probability that k individuals in the sample have Type A blood can be calculated as:

$P(x=k) = \dbinom{n}{k} p^{k}(1-p)^{n-k}\\\\\\P(x=k) = \dbinom{8}{k} 0.4^{k} 0.6^{8-k}\\\\\\$

Then, we can calculate the probability that more than 8/2=4 have Type A blood as:

$P(X>4)=P(X=5)+P(X=6)+P(X=7)+P(X=8)\\\\\\P(x=5) = \dbinom{8}{5} p^{5}(1-p)^{3}=56*0.0102*0.216=0.1239\\\\\\P(x=6) = \dbinom{8}{6} p^{6}(1-p)^{2}=28*0.0041*0.36=0.0413\\\\\\P(x=7) = \dbinom{8}{7} p^{7}(1-p)^{1}=8*0.0016*0.6=0.0079\\\\\\P(x=8) = \dbinom{8}{8} p^{8}(1-p)^{0}=1*0.0007*1=0.0007\\\\\\\\P(X>4)=0.1239+0.0413+0.0079+0.0007=0.1738$
