Answer:
a) 0.913
b) 0.397
c) 0.087
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the following information:
We treat wearing tie too tight as a success.
P(Tight tie) = 15% = 0.15
Then the number of businessmen follows a binomial distribution, where
where n is the total number of observations, x is the number of success, p is the probability of success.
Now, we are given n = 15
We have to evaluate:
a) at least one tie is too tight
b) more than two ties are too tight
c) no tie is too tight
d) at least 18 ties are not too tight
This probability cannot be evaluated as the number of success or the failures exceeds the number of trials given which is 15.
The probability is asked for 18 failures which cannot be evaluated.
