The prevalence of glaucoma in elderly people among high-risk populations within a city is approximately 5%. Suppose a mobile unit is sent to various neighborhoods throughout the city to identify subjects for a new glaucoma study. If the unit evaluates 500 people, what is the probability of identifying at least 20 cases of glaucoma?
A diagnostic test for disease X correctly identifies the disease 95% of the time. False positives occur 7%. It is estimated that 5.13% of the population suffers from disease X. Suppose the test is applied to a random individual from the population. What is the percentage chance that, given a negative result, the person does not have disease X? What is the percentage chance that, the person will be misclassified?
Only 6% of people has 0-negative blood type. If a local blood drive has 100 donors, what is the probability that at least 10 of the 100 donors has O-negative blood?
If an affected female XLX marries an unaffected male XY, what is the probability of passing the hypertrichosis gene to her offspring? Remember hypertrichosis is an X-linked dominant disease. If an affected male XLY marries an unaffected female XX, what is the probability of passing the hypertrichosis gene to his offspring?
The probability that a randomly chosen student in a statistics class submits his/her homework on time is 0.10. Each student does homework independently. In a statistics class of 50 students, what is the probability that at least 5 will do their homework on time?
A survey showed that 83% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 18 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 17 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 17 a significantly high number of adults requiring eyesight correction? ... The probability that at least 17 of the 18 adults require eyesight correction is (Round to three decimal places as needed.)
A survey showed that 7575% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 2222 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that no more thanno more than 11 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 11 a significantly lowlow number of adults requiring eyesight correction?
In a genetics experiment on peas, one sample of offspring contained 436 green peas and 373 yellow peas. Based on those results, estimate the probability of getting an offspring pea that is green. Is the result reasonably close to the value of 3/4 that was expected?
A survey showed that 81% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 20 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that no more than 1 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 1 a significantly low number of adults requiring eyesight correction?
