Suppose that historically, 36% of applicants that are offered admittance to Georgia Southern actually enroll, while the others take offers somewhere else. If Georgia Southern will accept 9150 this coming year, what is the probability that less than 3250 will actually enroll? Use the normal approximation to the binomial. P(X < 3250) =

In a certain study, the chance of encountering a car crash on the road is stated as 20%. Express that as a probability (which means it should be written as a decimal or a reduced fraction.)
Tom the cat patrols the house in search of the mouse Jerry, who wants to get into the kitchen for something to eat. After leaving the kitchen, Tom will return after a random amount of time, which follows an exponential distribution with mean 15 seconds. Suppose Jerry needs 12 seconds to get across the house, and starts immediately after Tom leaves the kitchen. What is the probability that Jerry the mouse will get caught? Next 1 Previous
In major league baseball, a no hitter is a game in which a pitcher, or pitchers, doesn't give up any hits throughout the game. No hitters occur at a rate of about three per season. Assume that the duration of time between no hitters is exponential. a. what is the probability that an entire season elapses with a single no-hitter? b. If an entire season elapses without any no hitters, what is the probabilty that there are no no hitters in the following season? c. What is the probabilty that there are more than 3 no hitters in a single season?
You need to compute the probability of 5 or fewer successes for a binomial experiment with 10 trials. The probability of success on a single trial is 0.54. Since this probability of success is not in the table, you decide to use the normal approximation to the binomial. Is this an appropriate strategy? Explain. O No, np 5. O No, np > 5.

Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with a trial repeated n=14 times. Use either the binomial probability formula (or a technology like Excel or StatDisk) to find the probability of k=7 successes given the probability p=3/4 of success on a single trial.(Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)P(X=k)=
Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with a trial repeated n=6 times. Use either the binomial probability formula (or technology) to find the probability of k=4 successes given the probability of p=0.35 of success on a single trial.(Report answers accurate to 4 decimal places.)P(X=k)=
Toilet Flushing In the Healthy Handwashing Survey conducted by Bradley Corporation, it was found that 64%of adult Americans operate the flusher of toilets in public restrooms with their foot. Suppose you survey a random sample of 740 adult American women aged 18–24 years. Use the normal approximation to the binomial to approximate the probability that (a) exactly 490 of those surveyed flush toilets in public restrooms with their foot. (b) no more than 490 of those surveyed flush toilets in public restrooms with their foot. (c) at least 503 of those surveyed flush toilets in public restrooms with their foot. What does this result suggest?
assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with n=4 trials and a probability of success of p=0.30 . use a binomial probability table to find the probability that the number of successes x is exactly 1 p(1)= ?
