Question

In the 2013 Jerry's artarama art supplies catalog, there are 560 pages. Eight of the pages feature signature artists. Suppose we randomly sample 100 pages. Let X= the number of pages that feature signature artists. (round 4 decimal places)

A) Find the probability that at most six pages feature signature artists.

B) Find the probability that more than 3 pages feature signature artists.

Answer 1

probability = x/n = 8/560

total trials = 100

(A) We have to find P(at most 6)

In TI 84, press 2nd button --> DISTR --> binomcdf

using binomcdf with trials = 100, p = 8/560 and x value = 6

(B) We have to find P(at most 6)

In TI 84, press 2nd button --> DISTR --> binomcdf

using binomcdf with trials = 100, p = 8/560 and x value = 3
