Two groups, A and B, with 10 people in each are in an experiment, and each person drops out of the experiment independently with probability 0.2. Find the probability at least 9 people complete the experiment in either A or B, but not both.
let C and D are event so that at least 9 person complete the experiment in A and B
P(C) =P(X=9)+P(X=10)=(10C9)*(0.8)9(0.2)1+(10C10)*(0.8)10(0.2)0 =0.3758
P(D) =0.3758
since event C and D are independent,
P(C n D) =P(C)*P(D) =0.3758*0.3758=0.1412
probability at least 9 people complete the experiment in either A or B, but not both
=P(C u D) =P(C)+P(D)-2*P(C n D) =0.3758+0.3758-2*0.1412=0.4692

In a certain population, one out of 25 people are color blind, on average. (a) If a random sample of 30 people is chosen, what is the probability that there is at least one color blind person? Hint: Find the probability that none of the 30 people is color blind. (b) Use the inclusion-exclusion formula to find the probability that in a random sample of two people (i.e., the people are independently chosen), at least one of the two is...
A large group of 100 people sit down at a function to a
two-course meal. Each course has two options: guests can choose to
have either Main A or Main B, and they can choose to have either
Dessert A or Dessert B. After the function, the chef notes that 30
chose Main A, while the remaining 70 chose Main B.
And of the people that chose main A, 9 chose Dessert A and 21
chose Dessert B. Of the...
You are polling people on their preference of products and each person independently has a 0.1 chance to prefer product A. Find the probability that in a poll of 100 people more than 10% of them will prefer product A.
b. Two people ? and ? are independently shoot at the same target once, and the hit rate is 0.6 and 0.5, respectively. Given that the target is hit, what is the probability that it is hit by person ??
PROBLEM # PAGE1 Forty percent of a group of people are female and sixty democrats and 48% of males are democrats. A person is randomly selected from the group. (A) [10 points) What is the probability that the selected person is a democrat? (B) (10 points] If the person selected is found to be a democrat, what is the probability that this person is male? (C) (10 points) What is the probability that the person selected is a female democrat?...
To determine whether or not they have a certain disease, 80 people are to have their blood tested. However, rather than testing each individual separately, it has been decided first to group the people in groups of 10. The blood samples of the 10 people in each group will be pooled and analyzed together. If the test is negative. one test will suffice for the 10 people (we are assuming that the pooled test will be positive if and only...
Question 2: Agenda Setting Consider there are three groups of people in Congress: Liberals, Moderates, and Conservatives. It does not matter the size of the groups - just that none of the groups is large enough for a majority - so it requires two groups to vote a certain way for something to pass. Therefore we can treat this like three people and voting where majority rules (another example of this is you with two friends trying to decide on...
In a group of 45 people, 23 males and 22 females, each person has either high blood pressure, a high level of cholesterol or both. If 10 females and 10 males have high blood pressure and 15 females have high level of cholesterol, and 2 males have both, then if a person is selected randomly from this group, what is the probability that (fraction only-reduced): a) the person have both? b) the person has high blood pressure? c) the person...
(probablity): given 3 groups of people: first group with 20 people, second group with 30 people, third group with 45 people. a)for each group: calculate the probability that at least 2 people will have a birthday in the same day b)write a program that generates random dates and run it on each group. how are the results obtained from running the program in comparison to the probabilities calculated for each group?
