The three-year recidivism rate of parolees in a certain state is about 20%; that is, 20% of parolees end up back in prison within three years. Assume that whether one parolee returns to prison is independent of whether any of the others return. Complete parts a and b below. Find the probability that exactly 6 out of 20 parolees will end up back in prison within three years. The probability that exactly 6 out of 20 parolees will end up back in prison is nothing.
Question 1 In a survey of top executives, it was found that 54% had either traveled internationally on business or could fluently speak a foreign language. The probability that an executive who had not traveled internationally could speak a foreign language was 20%. It was found that only 2% of the executives had traveled internationally and could speak a foreign language. Imagine we randomly pick a top executive who answered the survey. a.What is the probability that the executive has not traveled internationally and does not speak a foreign language fluently? b.What is the probability that the executive does not speak a foreign language fluently? c.What is the probaility that an executive has not traveled internationally? d. If we had a random sample of 10 top executives (who responded to the survey), what would be the probability that two had traveled internationally? -.
