Question 513622: It is known that 40% of the animals in a farm inoculated with a serum are protected from a certain disease. If five of the animals are inoculated, find the probability that none of them contracts the disease? Answer by stanbon(75887) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! It is known that 40% of the animals in a farm inoculated with a serum are protected from a certain disease. If five of the animals are inoculated, find the probability that none of them contracts the disease?
------------------------
P(protected) = 0.4
P(not protected) = 0.6
-------------------------------
Ans: P(no disease for 5) = 0.4^5 = 0.0102 = 1.02%
