In the game of roulette, a steel ball is rolled onto a wheel that contains 18 red, 18 black, and 2 green slots. If the ball is rolled 29 times, find the probability of the following events.
A. The ball falls into the green slots 4 or more times.
Probability =
B. The ball does not fall into any green slots.
Probability =
C. The ball falls into black slots 10 or more times.
Probability =
D. The ball falls into red slots 9 or fewer times.
Probability =
red=18
black=18
green=2
total=38
p(red)=18/38 =0.4737
p(black)=18/38=0.4737
p(green)=2/38=0.0526
1) nCx p^x q^n-x
nCx=29C4=23751
p^x= 0.0526^4 =0.00000765496
q^n-x=q^29-4=q^25=(1-p)^25=0.944^25=0.23675538044
=23751*0.00000765496*0.23675538044
=0.043017
2) 1-(nCx p^x q^n-x)
=1-(29*0.0526*(1-0.0526)^28)
=1-(29*0.0526*0.22025)
=1-0.3359
=0.6640
3)nCx p^x q^n-x
nCx=29C10=2003001
p^x= 0.4737^10 =0.0005688
q^n-x=q^29-10=q^19=(1-p)^19=0.00000505
=2003001*0.0005688*0.00000505
=0.0057
4)
nCx p^x q^n-x
nCx=29C9=10015005
p^x= 0.4737^9 =0.00120
q^n-x=q^29-10=q^20=(1-p)^20=0.00000265
=10015005*0.00120*0.00000265
=0.0318
