52% of all Americans are home owners. If 45 Americans are randomly selected, find the probability that a. Exactly 21 of them are are home owners. b. At most 24 of them are are home owners. c. At least 23 of them are home owners. d. Between 20 and 24 (including 20 and 24) of them are home owners.

0.0918 ; 0.6277 ; 0.6064; 0.5055

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Proportion of home owners : p = 0.52

Number of trials = 45

Using binomial distribution formula :

P(x =x) = nCr * p^x * (1 - p)^(n-x)

A.) probability that exactly 21 are homeowners :

P(x = 21) = 45C21 * 0.52^21 * (1 - 0.52)^(45 - 21)

P(x = 21) = 45C21 * 0.52^21 * 0.48^24

P(x = 21) = 3773655750150 * 0.52^21 * 0.48^24

P(x = 21) = 0.0918

b. At most 24 of them are are home

Using the binomial probability to save computation time.

P(x ≤ 24) = p(0) + p(1) + + p(24)

P(x ≤ 24) = 0.6277

C.) At least 23 of them are home owners.

P(x ≥ 23) = p(23) + p(24) +... + p(45)

P(x ≥ 23) = 0.6064

d. Between 20 and 24 (including 20 and 24) of them are home owners.

P(20 ≤ x ≤ 24) = p(20) + p(21) + p(22) + p(23) + p(24)

P(20 ≤ x ≤ 24) = 0.0711 + 0.0918 + 0.1084 + 0.1175 + 0.1167

P(20 ≤ x ≤ 24) = 0.5055

one that is bigger than 3 1/2

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.
