Unknown to a medical researcher, 6 out of 18 patients have a heart problem that will result in death if they receive the test drug. 8 patients are randomly selected to receive the drug and the rest receive a placebo. What is the probability that more than 1 patient will die? Express your answer as a fraction or a decimal number rounded to four decimal places.
Here, n = 8, p = 0.3333, (1 - p) = 0.6667 and x = 2
As per binomial distribution formula P(X = x) = nCx * p^x * (1 -
p)^(n - x)
We need to calculate P(X > 1).
P(X > 1) = (8C2 * 0.3333^2 * 0.6667^6) + (8C3 * 0.3333^3 *
0.6667^5) + (8C4 * 0.3333^4 * 0.6667^4) + (8C5 * 0.3333^5 *
0.6667^3) + (8C6 * 0.3333^6 * 0.6667^2) + (8C7 * 0.3333^7 *
0.6667^1) + (8C8 * 0.3333^8 * 0.6667^0)
P(X > 1) = 0.2732 + 0.2731 + 0.1707 + 0.0683 + 0.0171 + 0.0024 +
0.0002
P(X > 1) = 0.8049

How do you get this answer? Suppose 15% of the patients receiving medical treatment suffer from heart disease. For patients with heart disease, the probability of complications is 0.25. For patients with no heart disease, the probability of complications is only 0.10. Given that a randomly selected patient has complications, what is the probability the patient has heart disease? Round your answer to three decimal points Selected Answer:.306 Correct Answer:0.306 Answer range /-0.005 (0.301 0.311)
Question 6 Not yet answered Points out of 4.00 P Flag question Diagnostic tests of medical conditions have several results. The rest result can be positive or negative. A positive test (+) indicates the patient has the condition. A negative test () indicates the patient does not have the condition. Remember, a positive test does not prove the patient has the condition. Additional medical work may be required. Consider a random sample of 137 patients, some of whom have a...
