A basketball player takes 20 shots per game. The odds of making any single shot are 1 to 3. All shot attempts are independent, i.e. there are no “hot streaks". What is the probability that the player will make 5 or more shots in a game? Hint: First find the probability of making a single shot. Define a random variable X to represent the number of shots made in a game. State a reasonable probability distribution for X. Finally, you...

Information: Flu season comes every year and it is time to look at who in our community is most likely going to get us sick. Using a representative sample of the general population in the United States, we have constructed a table that shows flu vaccination status by age group. People were categorized as vaccinated for the 2015 flu season if they received influenza vaccine between September and November of 2014. Since we are confident in the representativeness of our...

relationship between bernoulli and binomial distribution Free throw basketball: we have p=0.6 to make a shot successfully, 0.4 miss the shot. Bernoulli: P(X=1)=0.6, P(X=0)=0.4 now we shoot the ball 5 times, so we have 5 random variable X1, X2, ,,,,,,X5 P(X1=Miss,X2=Success,X3=X4=Miss,X5=Success,X6=Miss)=p^2(1-p)^4 this is not binomial because we have the certain order, however, who can tell me the difference? becasue everyone said Bernoulli only n=1, but here n=5 and it is still bernoulli and it isnot binomial becasue it doesn't have...

Census data for a certain county show that 19% of the adult residents are Hispanic. Suppose 72 people are called for jury duty and only 9 of them are Hispanic. Does this apparent under-representation of Hispanics call in to question the fairness of the jury selection system? Explain. Note that for this stated problem, we have X=9, n=72, p-hat=9/72=12.5%, and p=19%. Since we are in the Binomial Setting, we have X~B(72, 0.19), and E(X)=13.68 is the expected value of X....
