Question:

Suppose that you and two friends go to a​ restaurant, which last month filled approximately 90.5% of the orders correctly. Can you please complete part (d) below.

 

a.What is the probability that all three orders will be filled​ correctly?

 

b. What is the probability that none of the three orders will be filled​ correctly?

 

c. What is the probability that at least two of the three will be filled​ correctly?

d. What are the mean and standard deviation of the binomial distribution used in​ (a) through​ (c)? Interpret these values.

Answer: 
 
Part a

“Since you have posted a question with multiple sub-parts, we will solve first three sub-parts for you. To get remaining sub-part solved please repost the complete question andmention the sub-parts to be solved.”.

Obtain the probability that all three orders will be filled correctly.

The probability that all three orders will be filled correctly is obtained below:

 

Use Excel to obtain the probability value for x equals 3.

Follow the instruction to obtain the P-value:

  1. Open EXCEL
  2. Go to Formula bar.
  3. In formula bar enter the function as“=BINOMDIST”
  4. Enter the number of success as 3.
  5. Enter the Trails as 3.
  6. Enter the probability as 0.905.
  7. Enter the cumulative as False.
  8. Click enter.

EXCEL output:

From the Excel output, the P-value is 0.7412.

 

Thus, the probability that all three orders will be filled correctly is 0.7412.

 

 

Part b

Obtain the probability that none of the all three orders will be filled correctly.

 

The probability that none of the all three orders will be filled correctly is obtained below:

 

Use Excel to obtain the probability value for x equals 0.

Follow the instruction to obtain the P-value:

  1. Open EXCEL
  2. Go to Formula bar.
  3. In formula bar enter the function as“=BINOMDIST”
  4. Enter the number of success as 0.
  5. Enter the Trails as 3.
  6. Enter the probability as 0.905.
  7. Enter the cumulative as False.
  8. Click enter.

EXCEL output:

From the Excel output, the P-value is 0.0009.

Thus, the probability that none of the all three orders will be filled correctly is 0.0009.

Part c

Obtain the probability that at least two of the three will be filled correctly.

The probability that at least two of the three will be filled correctly is obtained below:

 

 

Use Excel to obtain the probability value for x equals 1.

Follow the instruction to obtain the P-value:

  1. Open EXCEL
  2. Go to Formula bar.
  3. In formula bar enter the function as“=BINOMDIST”
  4. Enter the number of success as 1.
  5. Enter the Trails as 3.
  6. Enter the probability as 0.905.
  7. Enter the cumulative as True.
  8. Click enter.

EXCEL output:

From the Excel output, the P-value is 0.0254.

 

Thus, the probability that at least two of the three will be filled correctly is 0.9746
