A survey showed that 82% of adults need correction (eyeglasses, contacts, surgery, etc.) for their eyesight. If 15 adults are randomly selected, find the probability that no more than 1 of them need correction for their eyesight. Is 1 a significantly low number of adults requiring eyesight correction?

And using the probability mass function we can find the individual probabiities

And replacing we got:

And for this case yes we can conclude that 1 a significantly low number of adults requiring eyesight correction in a sample of 15 since the probability obtained is very near to 0

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X the random variable of interest "number of adults who need correction", on this case we now that:

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:

We want to find this probability:

And using the probability mass function we can find the individual probabiities

And replacing we got:

And for this case yes we can conclude that 1 a significantly low number of adults requiring eyesight correction in a sample of 15 since the probability obtained is very near to 0

the answer is 62
