In a large crowd, there are three times as
many men as women. Three people are
chosen at random. Assuming that there are
so many people that choosing three has a
negligible effect on the proportion of men to
women, find the probability that they are
a.all men
b.2 women and 1 man.​


Sagot :

Answer:

A. All men

Explanation

The probability of all men = 0.4219 while the probability of 2 women and 1 man = 0.14

How to solve for the probability of men

The question says we have three times as much men as women

The probability it is a man that was chosen = 3/4

The probability of choosing a woman = 1/4

a. The probability that the chosen persons are all men = (3/4)³

= 0.4219

b. The probability of 2 women and 1 man

3 * 0.75 *0.25²

= 0.14

Hence the probabilities are  a. 0.4219 and b.  0.14
