Act 3

The document discusses binomial and hypergeometric probability distributions. For a group of 5 employees, it calculates the probability that: all 5 read their contracts, at least 3 read their contracts, and less than 2 read their contracts. It also calculates probabilities related to sampling 4 SUVs from a total of 30 cars being shipped, such as the probability that all 4 cars received are SUVs.

BINOMIAL PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION
Sixty percent of Americans read their employment contracts, including the fine print. Assume that the number of employees w
their contract can be modeled using the binomial distribution. For a group of five employees, what is the probability that

a. all five will have read every word of their contracts?

Let X be the random variable representing the number of employees that have read every word of their contracts
n5 =
X5 = P(X = 5) = 0.07776
p0.6

=

b. at least three will have read every word of their contracts?

Let X be the random variable representing the number of employees that have read every word of their contracts
n=5
X≥3 P(3 ≤ X ≤ 20) = 1-P(X < 3)
p = 0.6 P(3 ≤ X ≤ 20) = 0.68256
q = 0.4

c. less than two will have read every word of their contracts?

Let X be the random variable representing the number of employees that have read every word of their contracts
n=5
X<2 P(X < 2) = 0.08704
p = 0.6
q = 0.4

d. p = 0.8

d.a. P(X = 5) = 0.32768


d.b. P(3 ≤ X ≤ 20) = 1-P(X < 3)
P(3 ≤ X ≤ 20) = 0.94208
d.c. P(X < 2) = 0.00672

HYPERGEOMETRIC PROBABILITY DISTRIBUTION - Sampling is donr without replacement

From an inventory of 30 cars being shipped to a local automobile dealer, 4 are SUVs. What is the probability that if 4 cars arrive

a. all 4 are SUVs?


let X be the random variable that represents the number of SUV cars that will arrive at a particular dealership.

P(X = 4) = 0.00003649

b. none are SUVs?

let X be the random variable that represents the number of SUV cars that will arrive at a particular dealership.

P(X = 0) = 0.5455

c. at least 1 is an SUV?

let X be the random variable that represents the number of SUV cars that will arrive at a particular dealership.

P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 1 - P(X < 1)


P(1 ≤ X ≤ 4) = 0.4545
