0.8212 = 82.12% probability that greater than 94 out of 153 people will not get the flu this winter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

$\sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)}$

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that $\mu = E(X)$ , $\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)}$ .

In this problem, we have that:

p = 0.65, n = 153 . So

$\mu = E(X) = 153*0.65 = 99.45$

$\sigma = \sqrt{V(X)} = \sqrt{np(1-p)} = \sqrt{153*0.65*0.35} = 5.9$

Consider the probability that greater than 94 out of 153 people will not get the flu this winter

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 94. So

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

$Z = \frac{94 - 99.45}{5.9}$

Z = -0.92

Z = -0.92 has a pvalue of 0.1788

1 - 0.1788 = 0.8212

0.8212 = 82.12% probability that greater than 94 out of 153 people will not get the flu this winter.

Answer from: Quest

answer rather than having to add and subtract the measurements of the semi-circle, notice that the semicircle to the left of ad is actually identical in area to the blank semicircle-shaped space to the left of bc. so if we transferred the red semicircle into the blank space, we would end up with a square of side length 24 cm. the area of a square is s^2 = 24^2 = 676 cm^2.
