1 It is estimated that 1 of the population is blood type AB
1) It is estimated that 1% of the population is blood type AB-.
During a blood drive Let X be the number of people who donate without B- blood donate before 4
people with A- blood donate.
a) What is the probability X=70?
2) Suppose P(A)=0.25, P(B)=0.4, P(A?B)=0.55.
a) Find P(A?B).
b) Find P(A|B).
c) Are A & B independent? (Justify your answer).
3) How many ways are there to pick 5 items from a group of 75 when order doesn
Solution
1) Question not clear
2) P(A int B) = 0.25+0.4-0.55 = 0.10
b) Find P(A|B) = P(AintB)/P(B) = 0.10/0.4 = 0.25
c) Are A & B independent?
P(AB) =0.10 and P(A) P(B) = 0.10
Hence they are independent
--------------------------------------------
3) I item in 75 ways
Ii item in 74 ways etc.
hence answer is 75P5 = 75!/70! = 2071126800
4)Mean 113
Median = 13
Mode =10
Ascending order
2,10,10,12,13,16,17,19,918
Least representative = Mode
b) P(X<70) = 8/9 = 0.889
--------------------------------------
5) No of applicants he refuses to hire
