Question:
Please help me respond to both of my classmates discussion post
Topic: For your post you will make up a problem that uses binomial distribution similar to the example below. Try to have 3 scenarios. You do not need to solve your own problem.
- If you can, try a probability different from .5. In your problem, make sure that the probability stays the same for each trial!
1. Hi Class!
I hope you all are well. My problem is as follows, the ice cream stand offers strawberry, chocolate and vanilla flavors. Let's say that for every 10 customers, the ice cream stand sells 6 vanilla cones. This means that the probability is 0.6
- Find the probability that 10 customers will purchase vanilla cones
- Find the probability that 10 customers do not order any vanilla cones.
- Find the probability that 10 customers order chocolate instead.
I hope you are all well. Look forward to chatting in the replies!
Best
Sarah
2. Good evening class!
I went snowboarding today, so I thought why not tailor my problem to that!
A ski resort has 10 black diamond runs, and the probability that one of them is closed is .2.
- What is the probability that at most 6 black diamond runs are closed?
- What is the probability that there are more than 6 black diamond runs closed?
- What is the provability that there are exactly 6 black diamond runs closed?
Hope you're all having a great week!
