Assuming that 6 in 10 automobile accidents are due mainly to a speed violation, find the probability that among 8 automobile accidents, 6 will be due mainly to a speed violation (a) by using the formula for the binomial distribution; (b) by using Table A.1.

Respuesta :

Answer:

A ) 0.2090 B) .2090

Step-by-step explanation:

∙Let random variable XX represent the number of accidents due to speed violation among 8 automobile accidents.

Lets consider it success if an accident is due to speed violation.

-Probability of a success in each trial is p = 6/10 = 0.6

-Because the trials are independent, XX has a binomial distribution with parameters n = 8n=8 and p = 0.60p=0.60
