A certain drug has an 80% success rate in relieving the symptoms of migraine.
\n" ); document.write( "In a group of 12 patients what is the probability that;
\n" ); document.write( "6 are helped by the drug
\n" ); document.write( "At least i is helped by the drug
\n" ); document.write( "No more than 2 are still suffering the effects of migraine
\n" ); document.write( "-----------
\n" ); document.write( "These are all binomial because people are either helped or are not helped.
\n" ); document.write( "In a group of 12 patients what is the probability that;
\n" ); document.write( "6 are helped by the drug
\n" ); document.write( "n=12 ; p=0.80 ; x=6
\n" ); document.write( "Using a TI calculator use binompdf(12,0.8,6) to get 0.055
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "At least ? is helped by the drug
\n" ); document.write( "Use [1-binomcdf(12,0.8,?-1)]
\n" ); document.write( "----------------
\n" ); document.write( "No more than 2 are still suffering the effects of migraine
\n" ); document.write( "Use binomcdf(12,0.8,2)=4.526 x 10^-6 = 0.000004526
\n" ); document.write( "---------
\n" ); document.write( "If you don't have a TI or are allowed to use a calculator
\n" ); document.write( "let me know.
\n" ); document.write( "---------
