Assume that when adults with smartphones are randomly selected, 49% use them in meetings or classes. if 9 adult smartphone users are randomly selected, find the probability that at least 3 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes.

Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.8999 = 89.99% probability that at least 3 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes.

For each adult, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they use their smartphones in meetings or classes, or they do not. The probability of an adult using their smartphones in meetings or classes is independent of any other adult, which means that the binomial distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

In this problem:

The desired probability is:

In which:

Then

0.8999 = 89.99% probability that at least 3 of them use their smartphones in meetings or classes.

The probability is that at least 6 of 9 adults use their smartphones in meetings or classes is 0.18173219

Hope this helps ;)

hi how are you doing today, if you need just ask me.

step-by-step explanation:

a

step-by-step explanation:

the denominator cannot be the same as one of the factors.

8 denominator times 2 denominator = 16

and 7 numerator time 11 = 77

77/16= 77/16 ( they cannot be further simplified)
