Question 4 of 10, Step 1 of 1 1/out of 10 Correct Certify Completion Icon Tries remaining:0 The Magazine Mass Marketing Company has received 16 entries in its latest sweepstakes. They know that the probability of receiving a magazine subscription order with an entry form is 0.5. What is the probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order

0.0105 = 1.05% probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each entry form, there are only two possible outcomes. Either it includes an order, or it does not. The probability of an entry including an order is independent of any other entry, 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 Magazine Mass Marketing Company has received 16 entries in its latest sweepstakes.

This means that

They know that the probability of receiving a magazine subscription order with an entry form is 0.5.

This means that

What is the probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order?

At most 3 including an order, which is:

In which

Then

0.0105 = 1.05% probability that no more than 3 of the entry forms will include an order.

120 seems like the most sensible answer.

step-by-step explanation:

if there is only one topping on all caramel apples and there's 120 of them. then all apples should/will be covered in sprinkles. make sense?
