The television show Law & Disorder has been successful for many years. That show recently had a share of 27, which means, that among the TV sets in use, 27% were tuned to Law & Disorder.  An advertiser wants to verify that 27% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 10 households have TV sets in use at the time of a Law & Disorder broadcast. Find the probability that none of the households are tuned to Law & Disorder. P(none) =  Find the probability that at least one household is tuned to Law & Disorder. P(at least one) =  Find the probability that at most one household is tuned to Law & Disorder. P(at most one) =  If at most one household is tuned to Law & Disorder, does it appear that the 27% share value is wrong? (Hint: Is the occurrence of at most one household tuned to Law & Disorder unusual?) yes, it is wrong no, it is not wrong

The television show Law & Disorder has been successful for many years. That show recently had a share of 27, which means, that among the TV sets in use, 27% were tuned to Law & Disorder.  An advertiser wants to verify that 27% share value by conducting its own survey, and a pilot survey begins with 10 households have TV sets in use at the time of a Law & Disorder broadcast.

Find the probability that none of the households are tuned to Law & Disorder.
P(none) = 

Find the probability that at least one household is tuned to Law & Disorder.
P(at least one) = 

Find the probability that at most one household is tuned to Law & Disorder.
P(at most one) = 

If at most one household is tuned to Law & Disorder, does it appear that the 27% share value is wrong? (Hint: Is the occurrence of at most one household tuned to Law & Disorder unusual?)

  • yes, it is wrong
  • no, it is not wrong
