The blood type o negative is called the "universal donor" type because it is the only blood type that may safely be transfused into any person. therefore, when someone needs a transfusion in an emergency and their blood type cannot be determined, they are given type o negative blood. for this reason, donors with this blood type are crucial to blood banks. unfortunately, this blood type is fairly rare; according to the red cross, only 7 percentage of u. s. residents have type o negative blood. assume that a blood bank has recruited 20 unrelated donors. (state calculator entry and give 4 decimal places) what is the probability that fewer than three of them will have type o negative blood? what is the probability that more than 4 of them have type o negative blood? find the probability that none of the donors had type o negative blood. would this be unusual? explain. what is the mean of the number of donors who have type o negative blood for a group this size? what is the standard deviation of the number of donors who have type o negative blood for a group this size?

Probability that fewer than three of them will have type O negative blood: P(x<3)=0.6047

Probability that more than 4 of them have type O negative blood: P(x>4)=0.0472

Probability that none of the donors had type O negative blood: P(x=0)=0.2342

Mean of the number of donors who have type O negative blood for a group this size: E=1

Standard deviation of the number of donors who have type O negative blood for a group this size: SD=2

Step-by-step explanation:

These experiments behave as binomial distribution:

P(x)=

where:

x: donors have type O negative blood

p: success outcome (0.07)

n: unrelated donors (20)

Fewer than three donors will have type O negative blood:

P(x<3)=P(x=0)+P(x=1)+P(x=2)=++

P(x<3)=0.2342+0.3526+0.2521=0.8389

More than 4 of donors have type O negative blood:

P(x>4)=1-P(x<4)= 1 - P(x=0) - P(x=1) - P(x=2) - P(x=3)= 1 - 0.2342 - 0.3526 - 0.2521 - 0.1139=0.0472

None of the donors had type O negative blood:

P(x=0)==0.2342

Mean of the number of donors who have type O negative blood:

E=n×p=20×0.07=1.4≅1

The mean number of donors that have type O negative blood is 1.

Standard deviation of the number of donors who have type O negative blood:

SD===1.5≅2

The standard deviation of the distribution of donors that have type O negative blood is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

the original amount doesn't ''re just looking for the time it takes for 1/2 of the substance to we have

(1/2) =)     take the ln   of both sides

ln (1/2)   = )   and we can write

ln(1/2) = ) lne     and lne   = 1     so we have

ln(1/2) = -.1092t     divide both sides by -.1092

t = ln(1/2)/-.1092 = about 6.347 days = about 6.3 days (rounded)
