Points If…

There is evidence of analytic evaluation of the problem with complete details.


5
The student clearly understands how to solve the problem and gets the correct answer.

2 Related concepts are used to solve the problem but the student arrived at a different answer.

The student wrote nothing or almost nothing or the concepts used are not related to the problem and the
0
student did not get the correct answer.

1. Which of the following is a binomial experiment? Why?


(i) Your factory produces a part of an electric hand drill. You test the machine by taking 40 parts
consecutively produced by the machine and counting how many of them are defective.
(ii) You survey 200 randomly selected people out of 100,000 registered voters to vote in an election,
counting how many of them prefer candidate A over candidate B.
Answer: Experiment ii is a binomial experiment because it has a fix independent trials with only
have two outcomes.

2. It is known from laboratory experiments that 40% of mice inoculated with a serum are protected from a
certain disease. If 6 mice are inoculated, find the probability that (a) none contracts the disease, (b) fewer
than 2 contracts the disease; (c) more than 4 contracts the disease. (d) Find the mean and variance of X:
the number of mice protected from disease after inoculation.

3. An urn contains 5 green balls, 2 blue balls, and 2 red balls. In a random sample of 5 balls, find the
probability that both blue balls and at least 1 red ball are selected.
Green = 5(x1)
Blue = 2(x2)
Red = 2(x3)

4. The surface of a circular dart board has a small center circle called the bull’s-eye and 20 pie-shaped regions
numbered from 1 to 20. Each of the pie shaped regions is further divided into three parts such that a person
throwing a dart that lands on a specified number scores the value of the number, double the number or
triple the number, depending on which of the three parts the dart falls. If a person hits the bull’s-eye with
probability 0.01, hits a double with probability 0.10, hits a triple with probability 0.05, and misses the dart
board with probability 0.02, what is the probability that 7 throws will result in no bull’s-eye, no triples, a
double twice, and a complete miss once?
P(bull's-eye) = 0.01
P(miss) = 0.02
P(triple) = 0.05
P(double) = 0.10
P(single) = 1 - 0.01 - 0.10 - 0.05 - 0.02 = 0.82

If
● 4 of them is single
● 2 of them were doubles
● 1 of them is a miss

P = [7!/(4!2!1!)] * (0.82)^4 * (0.10)^2 * (0.02)^1 = 0.00949455696

5. A motion by one of the board members of a town proposed that Brgy. San Vicente be annexed to its
adjacent barangay for taxation and fiscal reasons. Half of the 1500 residents of the Brgy. San Vicente
opposed the proposal. If a random sample of 20 were interviewed, what is the probability that at least 3
favor the proposal.

6. A research scientist inoculates several guinea pigs, one at a time, with the disease germ until he finds 3 that
have contracted the disease. If the probability of contracting the disease is 1/5, what is the probability that
8 guinea pigs are required?

7. Find the probability that a person flipping two coins gets (a) two heads or two tails on the fourth flip; (b)
two tails on the fifth flip.

(A)
g (2,1/4) = (1/4) (3/4)^2-1
g (2) = 3/16
= 0.1875
= 18.75%

(B)
(2, 1/5) = (1/5) (4/5)^2-1
g (2) = 4/25
= 0.16
= 16%

8. According to PAGASA (Philippine Atmospheric, Geophysical and Astronomical Administration), on average


CAR (Cordillera Autonomous Region) is hit by 12 typhoons per year. Find the probability that for a given
year, CAR will be hit (a) by fewer than 10 typhoons, (b) anywhere from 8 to 10 typhoons.

9. Suppose that 1 in 1,000 doctors make an incorrect diagnosis of a patient’s illness. If 10,000 patients are
selected at random, (a) find the probability that 6, 7 or 8 of the patients are told incorrect illnesses? (b) Find
the mean and variance of X representing the number of persons among 10,000 who were incorrectly
diagnosed.
