Answer 1

Answer:

0.0537

Step-by-step explanation:

This follows a binomial distribution with : n

Number of trials 'N' = 12 ; Probability of success (difference between speakers) 'p' = 1/2 or 0.5 ; Probability of failure (no difference b/w speakers) = 1/2 or 0.5 ; No of success 'r' = 3

P (X = 3) = $N C r. (p)^r.(q)^(n-r)$

= 12C3 (0.5)^3 (0.5)^9

0.0537
