Algebra.Com's Answer #321642 by ccs2011(207)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! The situation where at least one out of 4 are vaccinated includes all but one possibility, that which none of the 4 are vaccinated. \n" ); document.write( "The sum of all probabilities must equal 1. \n" ); document.write( "Let Q be probability none of the 4 are vaccinated. \n" ); document.write( "Let P be probability that at least 1 is vaccinated. \n" ); document.write( "P = 1 - Q \n" ); document.write( "Now if 63% are vaccinated, then 37% are not vaccinated. \n" ); document.write( "Thus any given person has a probability of 0.37 of not being vaccinated. \n" ); document.write( "Q = (0.37)^4 = 0.0187 \n" ); document.write( "P = 1 - 0.0187 = 0.981 \n" ); document.write( " |
