The probability that a person will develop the flu after getting a flu shot is 0.04. In a random sample of 100 people in a community who got a flu shot, what is the probability that 5 or more of the 100 people will get the flu

0.3711 = 37.11% probability that 5 or more of the 100 people will get the flu

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they will develop the flu after getting the shot, or they will not. The probability of a person developing the flu after getting the shot is independent of any other person, which means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

The binomial probability is the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, and X can only have two outcomes.

In which is the number of different combinations of x objects from a set of n elements, given by the following formula.

And p is the probability of X happening.

The probability that a person will develop the flu after getting a flu shot is 0.04.

This means that

Random sample of 100 people:

This means that

What is the probability that 5 or more of the 100 people will get the flu?

This is:

In which

So

Then

0.3711 = 37.11% probability that 5 or more of the 100 people will get the flu

so far i think you have the right thing going for you just remember soh cah toh

step-by-step explanation:

sine over hypotenuse

cosine   equals adjacent

tangent over hypotenuse
