Question

During a single day at radio station WMZH, the probability that a particular song is played is 1/5. What is the probability that this song will be played on exactly 3 days out of 5 days? Round your answer to the nearest thousandth.

Answer 1

Answer:

the probability that the song should be played on accurately  3 days out of 5 days is 0.051

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

The probability that a particular song is played is 1 by 5

We need to find out the probability that the song should be played on accurately  3 days out of 5 days

So,

$P(x = 3) = \frac{5!}{3! (5 - 3)!} (\frac{1}{5})^3(1 - \frac{1}{5})^{5-3}$

= 0.051

Hence, the probability that the song should be played on accurately  3 days out of 5 days is 0.051
