An examination consists of 10 multiple choice questions, in each
of which a
candidate has to deduce which one of five suggested answers is
correct. A
completely unprepared student guesses each answer completely
randomly. What
is the probability that this student gets at most 2 questions
correct?

A multiple-choice examination consists of 75 questions, each having possible choices a, b, c, and d. Approximate the probability that a student will get more than 18 answers correct if he randomly guesses at each answer. (Note that, if he randomly guesses at each answer, then the probability that he gets any one answer correct is 0.25.) Use the normal approximation to the binomial with a correction for continuity. Round your answer to at least three decimal places. Do not...
An exam consists of 64 independent multiple-choice questions. For each question, there are five choices, with only one being correct. Suppose a student randomly guesses the correct answer to each question. (a) What are the mean and standard deviation of the number of successful guesses? (b) Use the normal approximation to find the probability that the student will correctly guess at most 10 correct answers.
A quiz consists of 10 multiple choice questions, each with four possible answers, one of which is correct. To pass the quiz a student must get 70% or better on the quiz. If a student randomly guesses, what is the probability that the student will pass the quiz?
A quiz consists of 6 multiple-choice questions. Each question has 4 possible answers. A student is unprepared, and he has no choice but to guess answers completely at random. He passes the quiz if he gets at least 3 questions correctly. What is the probability that he will pass?
4. An exam paper consists of ten multiple choice questions, each offering four choices of which only one is correct. If a candidate chooses his answers I completely at random, what is the probability that (i) he gets at least 8 questions right, (ii) the last of the ten questions is the eighth one he gets right, (ii) in six such exams, he gets at least 8 questions right in at most one exam?
A multiple choice quiz has4 questions. Each question has 5 possible answers, only one of which is correct. A student has not studied for the quiz and guesses randomly on each question. What is the probability that the student gets at least one correct answer? Show your calculation, and write your answer as either a reduced fraction or a decimal rounded to four places.
A multiple choice test consists of 60 questions. each question has 4 possible answers of which one is correct. If all answers are random guesses, estimate the probability that of 140 randomly selected seeds, exactly 100 will germinate
A test consists of 25 multiple choice questions. Each question has 5 possible answers, or which only one is correct. If a student guesses on each question, find the following. a) The probability that he will guess all of them correct b)The probability that he will guess at most 15 correct. c)The probability that he will guess at least one correct. d) The mean and the standard deviation of the number of correct answers. e)Estimate the probability of the number...
a multiple choice quiz consists of 20 questions, each of which has five possible answers of which only one is correct. A student passes the quiz if twelve or more correct answers are obtained. what is the probability of passing the quiz if on each question, a student can eliminate two incorrect answers and then guess between the remaining three? (answer format _._ _ _ _ _ _)
A quiz consists of 10 multiple-choice questions. Each question has 5 possible answers, only one of which is correct. Pat plans to guess the answer to each question. Find the probability that Pat gets a. one answer correct. b. all 10 answers correct.
