What is the probability of getting zero tails?
The probability of getting zero tails is 1/2. The probability of getting zero tails twice in a row is 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/4. The probability of getting zero tails three times in a row is 1/2 x 1/2 x 1/2 = 1/8, etc... .
What is the application of normal distribution curve in quality control?
If the underlying distribution of the product is normally distributed then (and only then) the normal distribution can be used to identify specimens that are outside the acceptable range.
You calculate the standard error using the data.
What is the probability of choosing an 8 from a standard deck of cards?
either 4 in 52 chances or 1 in 13 chances.
What is the probability drawing an ace followed by a king?
If only two cards are drawn from a standard deck of cards, with the first card replaced before drawing the second, the answer is 0.005917 (approx). If the first card is not replaced, the probability increases to 0.006033.
How many ways to rearrange the letters of the word 'CHEESE'?
CHEESE
cheese has 6 letters in it. if you have a word with different letters, you do the factorial of the number of letters there are. but you can not do that in this word. since it has 3 E's, then you mut do 6!(factorial) divided by 3! then the answer would be 120
Is it true that the curve for the normal distribution is symmetrical in respect to the mean?
yes it is true
Can probability of an event be negative?
An event will happen or not so its probabilty is between 0 (never happen) and 1 (will surely happen).
The probability is a measure of its chance to happen.
A negative probability would have no sense.
You can think about probabilty this way: imagine a 1-litre bottle, it can be empty (0 litre) or full (1 litre) and any value between 0 and 1 but the value can't be negative.
Why the probability of success decreases when we repeat the same experiment several times?
It does not, so the question is based on a misunderstanding of probability.
How many ways can the word Tennessee be arranged?
Well, there are 9 letters in Tennessee, and, based on the question, you can only use each letter once.
The first letter has 9 possible outcomes.
The second letter only has 8, because you have already used one.
The third would have 7, etc.
9 * 8 * 7 * 6 * 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 322,880
When you toss a coin the probability that it will land heads up is 1 4 or 25 percent?
No, not if it is a fair coin.
What is the z score for a raw score of 70?
There is not enough information to answer your question. To determine a Z-Score, the mean and standard deviation are also required.
What is the probability of getting a red marble out of a bag of twenty?
4
If the marbles are all red - 100%. You need to give the number of each different colored marble
Yes.
What does the square root of 3 equal to?
How do you compute C11 5 the 11 and 5 are subscripts?
I'm assuming this is a combinations problem.
nCk = n!/(k!(n-k)!) is the general equation.
In your case n= 11 and k = 5
for 11!/(5!(11-5)!) = 11!/(5!*6!) = (11*10*9*8*7)/(5*4*3*2*1) = 462
Why can't 120 percent be a probability of an event?
The probability of an even must be a real number in the range [0, 1]. 120% is outside that range.
What does equally unlikely mean in probability?
Two events are equally unlikely if the probability that they do not happen is the same for each event. And, since the probability of an event happening and not happening must add to 1, equally unlikely events are also equally likely,
What is the probability of winning if you bought 50 ticket and 700 were sold?
P(Winning) = 50/700 = 0.0714... ≈ 7.14 %
What is the probability that the random variable has a value less than 5?
That depends on the rules that define the random variable.
What is the probability of no calls in a five-minute period?
The answer depends on the rate at which calls arrive and this is not given in the question. It also depends on the assumptions made about the type of distribution for the call rates.
