Question 1158233
When a person is selected at random from a very large population, the probability that the selected person 
is right-handed is 0.82. If three people are selected at random, what is the probability that

(a)  They are all right-handed?

(b)  None of them is right-handed?


<pre>
(a)    P = {{{0.82^3}}} = 0.5514.    <U>ANSWER</U>


(b)    P = {{{(1-0.82)^3}}} = {{{0.18^3}}} = 0.005832.     <U>ANSWER</U>
</pre>

Solved.
