a) If 7 kids with ADHD are chosen at random, what is the probability three of them would be affected by anxiety disorders?
b) If 7 kids with ADHD are chosen at random, what is the probability that less than three of them would be affected by anxiety disorders?
a) Probability that 3 of the 7 with ADHD are chosen will have anxiety is computed here as:
Therefore 0.1730 is the required probability here.
b) Probability that less than 3 of the 7 would have anxiety is computed again using binomial probability function as:
Therefore 0.7564 is the required probability here.
