There is a 25% chance that Saba will have to wait in line to ride a roller coaster for more than 10 minutes. What is the probability that she does not wait for more than 10 minutes on all 5 roller coasters she rides at the amusement park

Respuesta :

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.2373 = 23.73% probability that she does not wait for more than 10 minutes on all 5 roller coasters she rides at the amusement park.

What is the binomial distribution formula?

The formula is:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]C_{n,x} = \frac{n!}{x!(n-x)!}[/tex]

The parameters are:

  • x is the number of successes.
  • n is the number of trials.
  • p is the probability of a success on a single trial.

The values of the parameters are given as follows:

n = 5, p = 0.25.

The probability that she does not wait for more than 10 minutes on all 5 roller coasters she rides at the amusement park is P(X = 0), hence:

[tex]P(X = x) = C_{n,x}.p^{x}.(1-p)^{n-x}[/tex]

[tex]P(X = 0) = C_{5,0}.(0.25)^{0}.(0.75)^{5} = 0.2373[/tex]
