Answer:
The probability is 0.28157
Step-by-step explanation:
The number of answers are 40 answers ( 10 questions and 4 answer each)
The number of correct answers is only 10
So the probability that he answers 2 exactly out of 10 means he correctly selected 2 answers
The probability will be;
10 C 2/ 40 C 10
This mean out of the total 10 correct, he selects 2 and out of the total 40 , he selects 10
The probability of selecting a correct answer is;
1/4 while the probability of selecting a wrong one is 3/4
So probability of selecting 2 correct out of a total 10 will be
10 C 2 (1/4)^2 (3/4)^8
= 0.28157
Answer:
The correct option is (c).
Step-by-step explanation:
The complete question is:
The data for the student enrollment at a college in Southern California is:
Traditional Accelerated Total
Math-pathway Math-pathway
Female 1244 116 1360
Male 1054 54 1108
Total 2298 170 2468
We want to determine if the probability that a student enrolled in an accelerated math pathway is independent of whether the student is female. Which of the following pairs of probabilities is not a useful comparison?
a. 1360/2468 and 116/170
b. 170/2468 and 116/1360
c. 1360/2468 and 170/2468
Solution:
If two events <em>A</em> and <em>B</em> are independent then:

In this case we need to determine whether a student enrolled in an accelerated math pathway is independent of the student being a female.
Consider the following probabilities:

If the two events are independent then:
P (F|A) = P(F)
&
P (A|F) = P (A)
But what would not be a valid comparison is:
P (A) = P(F)
Thus, the correct option is (c).
