Find the indicated probabilities.
00:06
4 % of the us workforce tests positive for illicit drugs.
00:09
You randomly select 14 workers.
00:11
Find the probability that the number of workers who test positive for illicit drugs is the following.
00:17
So n equals 14, p equals 0 .04, q equals 0 .96, and the probability that x equals 2 is 14 combination 2 times 0 .04.
00:32
To the second power times 0 .96 to the 12th power, and that is going to be 0 .0892.
00:42
The probability that x is greater than 2 can be found by doing 1 minus the probability that x is less than or equal to 2.
00:50
And we can do that by hand, or we can use a graphing calculator.
00:55
So if you use a graphing calculator, go to second and use your vars key.
00:59
That's three keys above 9.
01:01
Go to b, which is binome, cdf.
01:06
And you're going to enter in 14 .04 and 2.
01:13
Your calculator will do all the heavy lifting for you.
01:16
Now remember we're subtracting, so 1 minus 0 .9833 is going to give us 0 .0167.
