about 22% of the population of a large country is allergic to pollen. if two people are randomly selected, what is the probability that both will be allergic to pollen? (round your answer to two decimal places) what is the probability that at least one person is allergic to pollen? (round your answer to two decimal place

Sagot :

The probability that both will experience allergies to pollen is 0.0484, and the probability that at least one will is 0.9516.

The following information is provided in the question:

A large country has a pollen allergy rate of about 22%.

As a result, the probability of people has a chance of having an allergy is  0.22.

P(allergic) = 0.22

P(Not allergic) = 1 - 0.22 = 0.78

If A and B are independent even, then,

P(A∩B) = P(A) × P(B)

Two people are randomly selected.

a) P( both will be allergic to pollen)

Since these are independent events,

P(both will be allergic to pollen)= P(allergic)*P(allergic)

= 0.22*0.22 =  0.0484

b) P(at least one person is allergic to pollen)

= 1 - P(both are not allergic to pollen)

= 1 - P(P(not allergic)*P(not allergic))

= 1 - (0.22*0.22)

= 0.9516
