Suppose approximately 75% of all marketing personnel are extroverts, whereas about 65% of all computer programmers are introverts. (For each answer, enter a number. Round your answers to three decimal places.) (a) At a meeting of 15 marketing personnel, what is the probability that 10 or more are extroverts? What is the probability that 5 or more are extroverts? What is the probability that all are extroverts? (b) In a group of 5 computer programmers, what is the probability that none are introverts? What is the probability that 3 or more are introverts? What is the probability that all are introverts?
Let X denotes the number of extrovert marketing personnel in a random sample of 15 marketing personnel.
X ~ Binomial(n = 15, p = 0.75)
The probability mass function of X is
Now,
The probability that 10 or more are extroverts
The probability that 5 or more are extroverts
The probability that all are extroverts
b)
Let Y denotes the number of introvert computer programmers in a random sample of 5 computer programmers.
Y ~ Binomial(n = 5, p = 0.65)
The probability mass function of Y is
The probability that none are introverts
The probability that 3 or more are introverts
The probability that all are introverts
