A survey showed that 80% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 16 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 15 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 15 a significantly high number of adults requiring eyesight correction? The probability that at least 15 of the 16 adults require eyesight correction is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
2 The probability of Inspector #1 on a production line finding a defective item is 0.8 and of Inspector #2, down the line, 0.7. What is the probability of a defective item getting through?
A certain disease affects about 1 out of 10, 000 people. There is a test to check whether the person has the disease. The test is quite accurate. In particular, we know that • the probability that the test result is positive (suggesting the person has the disease), given that the person does not have the disease, is only 2 percent; • the probability that the test result is negative (suggesting the person does not have the disease), given that the person has the disease, is only 1 percent. A random person gets tested for the disease and the result comes back positive. What is the probability that the person has the disease?
In a clinical trial, 3% of the patients in the study experienced fatigue as a side effect. Suppose that a random sample of 20 users of the new medicine were selected, find the probability that a. Exactly 2 will experience fatigue as a side effect. b. At most 2 will experience fatigue as a side effect.

A certain virus affects 0.7% of the population. A test used to detect the virus in a person is positive 88% of the time if the person has the virus (true positive) and 13% of the time if the person does not have the virus (false positive) Fill out the remainder of the following table and use it to answer the two questions below based on a total sample of 100,000 people. a. Find the probability that a person has the virus given that they have tested positive. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent and do not include a percent sign. b. Find the probability that a person does not have the virus given that they test negative. Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a percent and do not include a percent sign.
In a specific type of electronic card, the probability of a transistor being defective is 0.01. Let's assume there are 200 transistors on the electronic card. If there are no defective transistors, the electronic card is considered to be functioning. What is the probability of any electronic card not functioning?
