) All human blood can be typed as one of O, A, B, or AB. The distribution of the type varies a bit with race. For African-Americans, here are the approximate probabilities that a person will have blood type O, A, B, or AB. In a group of 10 randomly chosen people, what is the probability that two or more of them have Type A blood? (Complement rule may be useful.)

The correct option is 1 - [(0.8)¹⁰+10*0.2*(0.8)⁹]= 0.6242

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

Given the distribution of probabilities for blood types for African-Americans:

O: 0.4

A: 0.2

B: 0.32

AB: 0.08

A random sample of 10 African-American is chosen, what is the probability that 2 or more of them have Type A blood?

Let X represent "Number of African-Americans with Type A blood in a sample of 10.

Then you have two possible outcomes,

"Success" the person selected has Type A blood, with an associated probability p= 0.2

"Failure" the selected person doesn't have Type A blood, with an associated probability q= 0.8

(You can calculate it as "1-p" or adding all associated probabilities of the remaining blood types: 0.4+0.32+0.08)

Considering, that there is a fixed number of trials n=10, with only two possible outcomes: success and failure. Each experimental unit is independent of the rest and the probability of success remains constant p=0.2, you can say that this variable has a Binomial distribution:

X~Bi(n;p)

You can symbolize the asked probability as:

P(X≥2)

This expression includes the probabilities: X=2, X=3, X=4, X=5, X=6, X=7, X=8, X=9, X=10

And it's equal to

1 - P(X<2)

Where only the probabilities of X=0 and X=1 are included.

There are two ways of calculating this probability:

1) Using the formula:

With this formula, you can calculate the point probability for each value of X=x₀ ∀ x₀=1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10

So to reach the asked probability you can:

a) Calculate all probabilities included in the expression and add them:

P(X≥2)= P(X=2) + P(X=3) + P(X=4) + P(X=5) + P(X=6) + P(X=7) + P(X=8) + P(X=9) + X=10

b) Use the complement rule and calculate only two probabilities:

1 - P(X<2)= 1 - [P(X=0)+P(X=1)]

2) Using the tables of the binomial distribution.

These tables have the cumulative probabilities listed for n: P(X≤x₀)

Using the number of trials, the probability of success, and the expected value of X you can directly attain the corresponding cumulative probability without making any calculations.

>Since you are allowed to use the complement rule I'll show you how to calculate the probability using the formula:

P(X≥2) = 1 - P(X<2)= 1 - [P(X=0)+P(X=1)] ⇒

⇒ 1 - (0.1074+0.2684)= 0.6242

*-*

Using the table:

P(X≥2) = 1 - P(X<2)= 1 - P(X≤1)

You look in the corresponding table of n=10 p=0.2 for P(X≤1)= 0.3758

1 - P(X≤1)= 1 - 0.3758= 0.6242

what relationship between ideas is shown in the text above?

question 1 options:

location of events

similarity of events

timing of events

examples of an idea

step-by-step explanation:

the answer is:

the correct option:

b.

to solve the problem, we need to remember how to operate to simplify exponential expressions using the logarithms.

we are given the equation:

then, using placing logarith with base 7 on both sides of the equation, we have:

so, rounding the obtained result to two decimal places (nearest hundreth), we have:

hence, we have that the correct option:

b.

have a nice day!
