Question

According to a report from a particular university, 47% of female undergraduates take on debt. Find the probability that of the female undergraduates have taken on debt if 10 female undergraduates were selected at random. What probability should be found? The probability that of the female undergraduates take on debt is Blank. (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) According to a report from a particular university, 11.1% of female undergraduates take on debt. Find the probability that exactly 4 female undergraduates have taken on debt if 20 female undergraduates were selected at random. The probability that exactly 4 female undergraduates take on debt is Blank. (Type an integer or decimal rounded to three decimal places as needed.) A study determined that 7% of children under 18 years of age live with their father only. Find the probability that at most 2 persons selected at random from 15 children under 18 years of age lived with their father only. The probability that at most 2 children live with their father only is Blank. (Do not round until the final answer. Then round to the nearest thousandth as needed.)

Many students accumulate debt by the time they graduate from college. Shown in the following table is the percentage of graduates with debt and the average amount of debt for these graduates at four universities and four liberal arts colleges. University % with Debt Amount($) College % with Debt Amount($) 1 71 32,950 1 81 28,751 2 68 32,140 2 93 24,000 3 51 11,226 3 52 10,209 4 64 11,858 4 49 11,018 a. If you randomly choose a graduate of College 2, what is the probability that this individual graduated with debt (to 2 decimals)? b. If you randomly choose one of these eight institutions for a follow-up study on student loans, what is the probability that you will choose an institution with more than 60% of its graduates having debt (to 3 decimals)? c. If you randomly choose one of these eight institutions for a follow-up study on student loans, what is the probability that you will choose an institution whose graduates with debts have an average debt of more than $ 24,000 (to 3 decimals)? d. What is the probability that a graduate of University 1 does not have debt (to 2 decimals)? e. For graduates of University 1 with debt, the average amount of debt is $ 32,950. Considering all graduates from University 1, what is the average debt per graduate? Round to nearest dollar. $

Statistics grades: In a statistics class of 31 students, there were 18 men and 13 women. Four of the men and five of the women received an A in the course. A student is chosen at random from the class. (a) Find the probability that the student is a woman. (b) Find the probability that the student received an A. (c) Find the probability that the student is a woman or received an A. (d) Find the probability that the student did not receive an A.

Many students accumulate debt by the time they graduate from college. Shown in the following table are the percentage of graduates with debt and the average amount of debt for these graduates at four universities and four liberal arts colleges (U.S. News and World Report, America ' Best Colleges, 2008 ). a. If you randomly choose a graduate of Morehouse College, what is the probability that this individual graduated with debt? b. If you randomly choose one of these eight institutions for a follow-up study on student loans, what is the probability that you will choose an institution with more than $60 \%$ of its graduates having debt? c. If you randomly choose one of these eight institutions for a follow-up study on student loans, what is the probability that you will choose an institution whose graduates with debts have an average debt of more than $\$ 30,000 ?$ d. What is the probability that a graduate of Pace University does not have debt? e. For graduates of Pace University with debt, the average amount of debt is $\$ 32,980$ Considering all graduates from Pace University, what is the average debt per graduate?

00:01 In the first question, we're given from a report.
00:04 47 % of female undergrads from a particular university take on debts, and 10 female undergrads were randomly selected.
00:13 Now let x be the number of female undergrads out of these 10 will take on debts.
00:18 Now, since we assume that these 10, they took on or did not take on debts independently, x will follow the binomial distribution, at which end the number of trials is going to be done.
00:32 10 and p probability of success in a single trial there's probability of a female undergrad taking on that there'll be 47 % or 0 .47 in decimal so probability x equals to r where r is the number of female undergrads out of this 10 who took on that that will be then choose r 0 .47 to the power r and 1 minus 0 .470 53 to the power of then minus r now i want to find probability none of the 10 female undergrads took on that.
01:08 So we're looking at probability x equals to 0.
01:11 Just sub 0 into the r answer, which is 0 .002, 3 decimal place.
01:34 Now next, we're given from a report, 11 .1 % of female undergrads from a particular unisity to conducts and 20 female undergrads were randomly selected.
01:48 Let y be the number of female undergrads out of these 20 who took on debts.
01:53 Now again, y follows the binomial distribution and the number of trials will be 20.
01:59 And p, probability of success in a single trial, there is probability of female undergrad due on debt.
02:04 There will be 11 .1 % or 0 .111.
02:09 So probability y equals to r, where r is the number of female undergrads are 20 who took on debts.
02:15 That will be 20 choose r, 0 .1%.
02:18 111 to power r and 1 minus 0 .111 would be 0 .889 to the power of 20 minus r.
02:27 So now we want to find exactly four female undergrads taking on that.
02:33 We want to find the probability of that.
02:35 So we're looking at probability y equals to four.
02:38 So just sub 4 into the r...
