- If a binomial experiment has probability p success, then the probability of failure is ____________________. The probability of getting exactly r successes in n trials of this experiment is C(_________, _________)p (1p)You toss two six-sided dice. What is the probability that the total of the two dice is 5?Flexible Work Hours In a recent survey, people were asked whether they would prefer to work flexible hours----even when it meant slower career advancement----so they could spend more time with their families. The figure shows the results of the survey. What is the probability that three people chosen at random would prefer flexible work hours?
- Dividing a Jackpot A game between two pIayers consists of tossing coin. Player A gets a point if the coin shows heads, and player B gets a point if it shows tails. The first player to get six points wins an $8000 jackpot. As it happens, the police raid the place when player A has five points and B has three points. After everyone has calmed down, how should the jackpot be divided between the two players? In other words, what is the probability of A winning (and that of B winning) if the game were to continue? The French mathematicians Pascal and Fermat corresponded about this problem, and both came to the same correct conclusion (though by very different reasoning's). Their friend Roberval disagreed with both of them. He argued that player A has probability of Winning, because the game can end in the four ways H, TH, TTH, TTT, and in three of these, A wins. Roberval’s reasoning was wrong. Continue the game from the point at which it was interrupted, using either a coin or a modeling program. Perform this experiment 80 or more times, and estimate the probability that player A wins. Calculate the probability that player A wins. Compare with your estimate from part (a).Sick leave probability that a given worker at Dyno Nutrition Will call in sick on a Monday is 004. The packaging department has eight workers.
