Algebra.Com's Answer #713507 by rothauserc(4718)![]() ![]() You can put this solution on YOUR website! We can use the binomial probability formula to solve this problem since either a student voted or not voted \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "Probability(P) (k events in n trials) = nCk * p^k * (1-p)^(n-k), where nCk = n! / (k! * (n-k)!) \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "p = 0.20, k=5, n=10 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( "P = 10C5 * (0.20)^5 * (1-0.20)^(10-5) = 0.0264 \n" ); document.write( ": \n" ); document.write( " \n" ); document.write( " |
