probability
Assume that 13% of people are left-handed. If we select 10people at random, answer the following questions:
a. What is the probability that there are 3lefties in the group? 
b. What is the probability that there are atleast 3 lefties in the group?
c. Find the expected number of right-handers inthe group.
d. Find the standard deviation of the number ofright-handers in the group.
e. What is the probability that they are not allright-handed?
it would be 1 - P(0 left handers) ... howwould you find P(0 left handers)??
g. What is the probability that the majorityis right-handed?wouldn't this be P (x >= 6) = 1 - P(x<= 5) .. im gettin 1 - 0.999 which can't beright

f. P(5 righties &5 lefties) = P(5 lefties) (this alreadyimplies there are 5 righties)
g. P(at least 6 righties)

A manufacturer of game controllers is concerned that its controller may be difficult for left-handed users. They set out to find lefties to test. About 12% of the population is left-handed. If they select a sample of 8 customers at random in their stores, what is the probability of each of the outcomes described in parts a through f below? a) The first lefty is the fifth person chosen. b) There are some lefties among the 8 people. c) The...

(b) A scientist selected a random sample of 1000 people. Let Y be the number of people who are right-handed, what distribution does Y follow? (c) This scientist found out that among the 1000 people, 100 are right-handed. He then estimated p to be 0.1. What theorem justifies his conclusion....

Approximately 10% of people in the world are left-handed, so P(a person is left handed) = 0.1. Suppose we have a class of 15 people and UHD is interested in how many left-handed desks the class will need, so we define a random variable X, the number of left-handed people in the class. 1. What distribution family does this situation belong to? What is (are) the parameter(s)? 2. What is the probability that none of the students will be left...
