\n" ); document.write( "Given:
\n" ); document.write( "An unfair die with heads 56.9% of the time.
\n" ); document.write( "Find probability that up to 25 heads show up in 27 throws.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Solution:
\n" ); document.write( "Binomial probability distribution,
\n" ); document.write( "p=0.569
\n" ); document.write( "n=27
\n" ); document.write( "r=25
\n" ); document.write( "So,
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%28n%2Cr%29=C%28n%2Cr%29%2Ap%5Er%2A%281-p%29%5E%28n-r%29\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%2827%2C26%29=C%2827%2C26%29%2A0.569%5E26%2A%281-0.569%29%5E1=4.9976%2A10%5E-6\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"P%2827%2C27%29=C%2827%2C27%29%2A0.569%5E27%2A%281-0.569%29%5E0=2.444%2A10%5E-7\"
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Therefore probability for getting up to 25 heads
\n" ); document.write( "P(27,0-25)=1-P(27,>25)=1-P(27,26)-P(27,27)
\n" ); document.write( "=\"1-4.9976%2A10%5E%28-6%29-2.444%2A10%5E%28-7%29=1-5.242%2A10%5E%28-6%29=0.9999948\"
