A certain genetic trait affects, independently, 30% of progeny; if 5 progeny are selected at random what is the probability that exactly 3 have the genetic trait
Let x be a random variable = x = no of progeny affected out of 5
where x
Po(5 * 0.30) = Po(1.5)



ANS : Probability that exactly 3 have genetic trait = 0.12551

Question 5. (20 pts.) 1. The probability that a person selected at random from a population will exhibit the classic symptom of a certain disease is 0.2, and the probability that a person selected at random has the disease is 0.23. The probability that a person who has the symptom also has the disease is .18. A person selected at random from the population does not have the symptom. What is the probability that the person has the disease? 2....
1. The probability that a person selected at random from a
population will exhibit the classic symptom of a certain disease is
0.2, and the probability that a person selected at random has the
disease is 0.23. The probability that a person who has the symptom
also has the disease is .18. A person selected at random from the
population does not have the symptom. What is the probability that
the person has the disease? 2. In a certain population...
A. According to an airline, flights on a certain route are independently of each other with an on-time rate of 80% of the time. Suppose 15 flights are randomly selected and the number of on time flights is recorded. How many total outcomes are available, if the order of the flights is considered? B. According to an airline, flights on a certain route are independently of each other with an on-time rate of 80% of the time. Suppose 15 flights...
Suppose a genetic trait in Impalas (Aepyceros datoadeni) occurs more often in males. The sex ratio in impalas is bout 50 males to 100 females. 80% of males have this trait, but only 15% of females. (a) What is the probability that a randomly chosen impala will have the trait? (b) Suppose a randomly picked impala has the trait (i.e., you pick an impala without paying attention to the sex), what is the probability this impala is a female?
suppose the number of deaths of a certain cockroach population occur independently at a rate of 3 deaths/day i) find the probability of having 3 cockroach deaths in a day ii) if we consider a 20 day sample period, what is the probability that at most 2 of these days have less than 3 deaths? iii) if we consider a random sample of 42 days, what is the probability that the average number of deaths/day is less than 2.5?
In a group of 45 mice, there are 10 that have a certain genetic character. suppose that 7 mice are randomly selected ( 7 different mice are chosen - a single mouse cannot be chosen more than once). what is the probability that there is at least one mouse with genetic character in the 7 randomly selected mice ? please explain and answere !!!!
