Blood type B is relatively rare in the population, with a probability of .10. If we randomly selected three people and determined if their blood type was B (Yes or No), what is the number of combinations of outcomes for the sample space (hint, 1 outcome is YYY)? A. 8 B. 6 C. 3 D. 4
Number of possible outcomes are
first | second | third |
Y | Y | Y |
Y | Y | N |
Y | N | Y |
Y | N | N |
N | Y | Y |
N | Y | N |
N | N | Y |
N | N | N |
Therefore number of possible outcomes are
Blood type B is relatively rare in the population, with a probability of .10. If we...
With the probability of .10, if we randomly selected 3 people, what is the probability that at least one person would have type B blood
In kidney transplantations, compatibility between donor and receiver depends on such factors as blood type and antigens from a large national kidney registry Complete parts a and b below randomly selected from this registry there is a 18% chance that he or she is compatible with a specific receiver Three donors are a. Find the probability that 0. 1, 2 or all 3 compatible by cons choosing three donors, Let S denote a successful match and F denote a selected...
The probability that a person in the United States has type B blood is 12%. Three unrelated people in the United States are selected at random Complete parts (a) through (d). (a) Find the probability that all three have type B blood The probability that all three have type B blood is _______
. 40% of the population has type A blood. a. If 9 people are selected at random, what is the probability that less than four of them have type A blood. b. If 90 donors come to give blood one day, what is the probability that less than 40 of them have Type A blood (using the normal approximation)? Explain why this is higher or lower than the answer in part (a). c. If 15 people give blood one day,...
It is known that 80% of people donating blood have a particular type of protein. Five people are randomly selected. 1 What is the probability that at least one person does not have the type of protein? 2 What is the probability that at most four have the type of protein? 3 What is the smallest number of people who must be selected if we want to be at least 90% certain that we obtain at least five people with...
A hospital has an urgent need for three units of type A+ blood. Assume that approximately 33% of the population has this type of blood. If there are 10 people waiting to donate one unit of blood, what is the probability that the hospital will be able to meet its need? (Hint Subtract the probability that fewer than three people have A+ blood from 1.) The probability that the hospital gets at least three units of blood is (Round to...
1.Suppose we have two bowls full of candies. Each bowl contains four different flavours of candy – grape (which are purple), lemon (which are yellow), cherry (which are red) and raspberry (which are also red). (a) [1 Mark] We will randomly select one candy from each bowl. The outcome of interest is the flavour of each of the two candies. Write out the complete sample space of outcomes. (b) [1 Mark] Suppose instead that we randomly select one candy from...
In a region, there is a 0.8 probability chance that a randomly selected person of the population has brown eyes. Assume 11 people are randomly selected. Complete parts (a) through (d) below. a. Find the probability that all of the selected people have brown eyes. The probability that all of the 11 selected people have brown eyes is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. Find the probability that exactly 10 of the selected people have brown eyes. The...
The probability that a person in the United States has type B+ blood is 88%. ThreeThree unrelated people in the United States are selected at random. Complete parts (a) through (d). (a) Find the probability that all threethree have type B+ blood.
2. Suppose that 10% of the general population is left-handed (a) We randomly sample 20 individuals. Find the probability that fewer than 2 of them are left handed. Hint: You cannot use the normal distribution (b) we randomly sample 200 individuals. Find the probability that less than 8% of them are left handed.
