### Probability and Statistics: Colorblindness in a Sample Group#### Question 3About 8% of males are colorblind. A researcher needs some colorblind subjects for an experiment and begins checking potential subjects. In a group of 50 people, find the following probabilities:- **a.** There are exactly 4 colorblind people.- **b.** There are 2 OR 3 colorblind people.- **c.** The first colorblind person found is the 18th one checked.- **d.** On average, how many colorblind people would you expect in the group? (mean)---In this task, you are to calculate the probabilities relating to colorblindness within a sample group of 50 individuals. This exercise involves using principles of probability, specifically focusing on binomial and geometric distributions, as well as calculating expected values.**Graphical/Diagram Explanation:**This problem does not include any graphs or diagrams, but if it did, potential visual aids might include:- **Bar Graph:** Showing the frequency of colorblind individuals within different sample sizes.- **Probability Distribution Diagram:** Illustrating the likelihood of finding a certain number of colorblind individuals in the sample.- **Tree Diagram:** Mapping out different outcomes in finding the colorblind people sequentially. These tools can help visually represent the calculations needed to answer the questions effectively.

A study of consumers smoking habits include 160 people in the 18-22 age bracket (49 of whom smoke), 133 people in the 23-30 age bracket (37 of whom smoke), and 85 people in the 31-40 age bracket (21 whom smoke). If one person is randomly selected from this sample, find the probability of getting someone who is age 18-22 or does not smoke.

A recent study has shown that approximately 31.6% of Canadians are considered 'supertasters,' or people who experience the sense of taste with greater intensity than average. Consider a sample of 23 Canadians, each of whom are asked to indicate if they are a supertaster or not. Please use this information to answer the following questions.a. Suppose you know that at least 7 of the Canadians sampled are supertasters. What is the probability that exactly 15 of the Canadians sampled are supertasters?Answer:______________Round to at least FOUR digits after the decimal if necessary. b. What is the probability that the 10th Canadian sampled is the sixth person to indicate that they are a supertaster?Answer:______________Do NOT round your answer; give all the decimals.

Suppose that 30 percent of an adult population have an infectious disease and 40 percent have achronic disease. Assume that having an infectious disease is independent from having a chronicdisease. For each of the questions below perform the calculation using appropriate statisticalnotation.a. What is the probability that a person selected at random will have both diseases?b. What is the probability of having the infectious disease for people with the chronic disease?c. What is the probability of having the infectious disease for people without the chronic disease?d. What is the probability of not having the infectious disease for people with the chronicdisease?
