To calculate: The probability that there is one or more mornings with suitable weather.
The probability that one or more morning suitable for weather balloon launch is 0.784.
Given:For each morning the probability of suitable weather to launch a weather balloon is 0.40 and a scientist hopes to launch a weather balloon in one of the next 3 days.
Concept used:
The
Calculation:
Consider, X be the random variable that shows the number of mornings with suitable weather.Thus,
The probability that one or more mornings are suitable for a weather balloon launch is calculated as shown below
Thus the probability that there will be one more morning with suitable weather to launch a weather balloon.
