The television show September Road has been successful for many years. That show recently had a share of 20, meaning that among the TV sets in use, 20% were tuned to September Road. Assume that an advertiser wants to verify that 20% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 11 households have TV sets in use at the time of a September Road broadcast. Find the probability that none of the households are tuned to September Road. P(none)

Answer:

[tex]P(none) = 0.0859[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

[tex]p =20\%[/tex] --- proportion of household that tuned to September

[tex]n =11[/tex] --- selected households

Required

[tex]P(none)[/tex]

Using the complement rule, the proportion that did not tune (q) is:

[tex]q= 1 - p[/tex]

[tex]q= 1 - 20\%[/tex]

[tex]q= 1 - 0.20[/tex]

[tex]q= 0.80[/tex]

So, the probability that none of the 11 tuned in is:

[tex]P(none) = q^{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(none) = 0.80^{11}[/tex]

[tex]P(none) = 0.0859[/tex]
