Okay, so we're looking at some binomial distribution calculations.
00:07
I'll write out what the formula is for the first one, and then the rest.
00:10
I'll show you how to use a calculator.
00:12
I'll show you how to use desmos.
00:13
I'll show you how to use a t -i -inspire.
00:15
So the binomial theorem says it's going to be n choose k, the probability of k times the probability of not k to the n -minus k.
00:29
Cool what does that mean in practice so our sample size is six we want to know what's the probability of getting exactly five of those uh to be successes we know its success rate is point four to the fifth power and then that means it's point six failure rate to the first power so this also means a combination so it would be n -c -r, or n -choose -r, if you will, and that is just a calculator formula.
01:07
It's a combination formula, if you have desmos, which is free, if you hit the, i'll just show you the functions button, and then scroll down to the distributions part, it will say binomial distribution.
01:25
I typed in point six, or sorry, six, comma, point four.
01:30
And then each of these points gives you the probability of those events happening.
01:36
So for our case, five is 0 .037.
01:40
If instead that you're using something like a ti inspire, which i find way easier to use, this is a ipad version of it, if you go to probability distributions, and then you go to binomial pdf, we want the number of trials.
01:56
Which is six in this case.
01:59
The probability of success is 0 .4.
02:02
And then we want 5.
02:04
We hit okay.
02:06
It says round to the nearest three decimals.
02:08
So that would be 0 .036.
02:13
369.
02:14
0 .036 or 37.
02:18
So let's write that.
02:19
The probability of getting 5 is 0386.
02:24
The next one.
02:26
It says a poll is giving.
02:28
Given showing 35 % in favor of new building project, 10 people are selected at random.
02:32
What's the probability of exactly six of those favoring the new building project? so n is 10, p is 0 .35, and we're looking for the sixth term.
02:42
So i'll just do this again.
02:44
Binomial pdf, we're looking for 10.
02:47
The probability of success is 0 .35.
02:50
I'm looking for 6.
02:51
You hit enter on your calculator, you get 0 .06891.
02:56
So 0 .06819.
02:58
If we're rounding to the nearest three decimals.
03:01
So this is 0 .0689.
03:06
Okay.
03:07
A manufacturing machine has a 5 % defect rate.
03:12
If four items are chosen at random, what is the probability that at least one will have a defect? anytime you see the word at least one, you should think the complement.
03:25
Compliment.
03:28
Compliment.
03:31
So what does that mean? i want to do one minus the probability that you have no defects.
03:39
So the probability of getting no defects is a sample size of four that zero have that defect.
03:46
So i'll go one minus then binomial pdf.
03:54
We have a sample size of four.
03:57
Probability success is 0 .05.
03:59
That's 5%.
04:00
And we want 0 .0.
04:03
I did one minus and we get 18 .55 % or 0 .1855.
04:15
Just to confirm, 1 ,8459.
04:18
Round up...
