In: Statistics and Probability
A recent survey reported that 57% to 18 to 29 year olds in a certain country own tablets. Using the binomial distribution , complete parts a through e below.
a. What is the probability that in the next six 18- to 29-year-olds surveyed, four will own a tablet?
b. What is the probability that in the next six? 18- to? 29-year-olds surveyed, all six will own a? tablet?
c. What is the probability that in the next six? 18- to? 29-year-olds surveyed, at least four will own a? tablet?
d. What are the mean and standard deviation of the number of? 18- to? 29-year-olds who will own a tablet in a survey of? six?
e. What assumptions do you need to make in? (a) through? (c)? Select all that apply.
-The outcome of any observation is independent of the outcome of any other observation.
-The probability of an observation being classified as the event of? interest,
pi??, is constant from observation to observation.
-The outcome of any observation is dependent of the outcome of any other observation.
-Each observation is classified into one of two mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive categories.
GIVEN THAT :-
According to the question we have that ,
A survey reported that 57% to 18 to 29 year olds in a certain country own tablets.
TO FIND :A)What is the probability that in the next six 18- to29-year-olds surveyed, four will own a tablet?
now from the question we have that
n=6 ,x= 4, p= 0.57 and
q=1-p
=1-0.57
= 0.43
q=0.43
TO FIND :A)What is the probability that in the next six 18- to29-year-olds surveyed, four will own a tablet?
for finding the P(X=4) we have a formula
P(X=4)= Ncx*p^x*q^n-x.
substituting the values and solving we get that
= 0.2928 =BINOMDIST (4,6,0.57,FALSE)
TO FIND :B) What is the probability that in the next six 18- to29-year-olds surveyed, all six will own a tablet?
So from the above we use the same formula and the same values for finding the P(X=6)
P(X=6)= Ncx*p^x*q^n-x
= 0.0343
TO FIND :C)What is the probability that in the next six 18- to29-year-olds surveyed, at least four will own a tablet?
So as from the above we use the formula and the same values
P(X>=4)
=1- BINOMDIST(3,6,0.57,TRUE)
= 0.48
TO FIND :D)What are the mean and standard deviation of the number of18- to 29-year-olds who will own a tablet in a survey of six?
for finding the mean we have a formula mean =np
n=6 ;p=0.57
there fore n*p =6*0.57
mean = 3.42
now for finding the variance we have a formula variance =npq
n=6 ;p=0.57;q=0.43 from the above substituting we get that
=6*0.57*0.43
variance =1.4706
now for finding the standared deviation we have a formula = sqrt(variance)
=sqrt (1.4706) from the above
standared deviation =1.2127
I HAVE SOLVED 4 OF THEM FOR THE LAST ONEPLEASE REPOST THE QUESTION AGAIN
