1. That none of them received hearts from people without insurance?
2. That all 8 received hearts from people without insurance? Answer by ewatrrr(24785) (Show Source):
Hi,
Note: The probability of x successes in n trials is:
P = nCx* where p and q are the probabilities of success and failure respectively.
In this case p(w/o insurance)= 1/6 & q = 5/6 and n = 8
8 transplants are selected at random
P(none from w/o ins)=
P(8 from w/o ins) =
