I'm totally lost on the following problem, can anyone please help me out? Thank you in advance!
1. Survey conducted showed that the average commuter spends about 26 min on a one-way door-to-door trip. Also 5% of commuters reported a one-way commute of over an hour.
a. If 20 commuters are surveyed, what is the probability that three will report a one-way commute of more than one hour?
b. If a company has 2000 employees, what is the expected number of employees with a commute of more than one hour?
Disecrete Probability Distributions Help Needed?
Hi,
a. 20nCr3 (.05)^3(.95)^17 = .0595 = 5.95% probability
b. 5% of 2000 = 100
I hope that helps!! :-)
