Answer 10 :
A fish tank in a pet store has 15 fish in it. 11 are orange and 4 are white. Determine the probability that if we select 3 fish from the tank, at least 2 will be white.
Solution :
Total fish = 15
Orange fish = 11
White fish = 4
P(Atleast 2 out of 3 will be white)
= P(2 white) + P(3 white)
= (4C2 * 11C1) + (4C3 * 11C0) / 15C3
= (6*11 + 4*1) / 455
= (66 + 4)/455
= 70/455
= 0.1538
Therefore option a) is correct answer.

3. A large pet store that specializes in tropical fish has several thousand guppies. The store claims that the guppies have a mean length of 5 cm and a standard deviation of 0.5 cm. You come to the store and buy 10 randomly-selected guppies and find that the mean length of your 10 guppies is 4.8 cm. This makes you suspect that the mean fish length is not what the store says it is. To explore this further, you assume...
