Close to 45% of smartphone users say they upgrade their phone every 2 years. In a random sample of 60 smartphone users, what is the probability that a. more than 35 smartphone users upgrade their phone every 2 years?
Homework Answers
We have given n = 60 , x = 35 and p = 0.45
We have asked to find P ( More than 35 ) that is P ( x >35 )
P( x > 35 ) = P( x = 36 ) + P ( x = 37 ) + ....................... + P ( x = 58 ) + P ( x = 59 ) + P ( x = 60 )
By using Binomial distribution formula we get -
P( x > 35 ) = 0.0139 ( Rounded to 4 decimal places )
Hope this will help you. Thank you :)

In a study of 258,001 cell phone users, it was found that 43 developed cancer of the brain or nervous system. Assuming that cell phones have no effect, there is a 0.000234 probability of a person developing cancer of the brain or nervous system. We therefore expect about 61 cases of such cancer in a group of 258001 people. Estimate the probability of 43 or fewer cases of such cancer in a group of 258,001 people. What do these results...

The article “How to Block Nuisance Calls” reported that in a survey of mobile phone users, 70% of those surveyed said that they received at least one nuisance all to their mobile phone in the last month. Suppose that this estimate was based on a representative sample of 600 mobile phone users. Using a significance level of 0.05, determine if there is evidence that more than 66% of all mobile phone users have received at least one nuisance call in...

1. Lucille has a collection of more than 1000 songs on her phone that have a mean duration of 215 seconds and a standard deviation of 35 seconds. Suppose that every week she makes a playlist by taking a simple random sample of 50 of these songs, and we calculate the sample mean duration of the songs in each sample. A. Find the probability that the sample mean is between 200 and 220 seconds. B. Find the probability that a...
