Question

A drug company claims their new flu vaccine cures 92% of patients. A family of five people is deciding on whether to take the vaccine or not.  Let X be the number of members in the family getting the flu.

                   

a) State the 4 conditions for the number of members in the family getting the flu to be a binomial. 

     1. Trials are fixed at n=        ["", "", "", ""]  . 

     2. Two outcomes        ["", "", "", ""]  .

     3. X is       ["", "", "", ""]  with probability of success       ["", "", "", ""]                       

     4. Trials are       ["", "", "", ""] 

 

b) Fill in the blanks using the dropdown menu:  X~      ["", "", "", ""]  ( n=       ["", "", "", ""]    ,  p =       ["", "", "", ""]  .

c) The probability that less than 2 members of the family will get the flu is P(X<2)=        ["", "", "", ""]  .

d) P(X=0)=        ["", "", "", ""] 

e) E(X)=       ["", "", "", ""]        and   Var(X)=        ["", "", "", ""]
