Answer:
The probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Note: This question is not complete. The complete question is therefore provided before answering the question as follows:
A meeting on an unpopular topic has been announced. The number of attendees may be modeled by X where:
P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,...
What is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend?
The explanation of the answer is now provided as follows:
Given:
P(X = x) = 1 / 2^(x+1), for x = 0,1,2,... (1)
Since it is given that at least 2 attend, it implies that we need to calculate P(x) at x = 2.
Substituting x = 2 into equation (1), we have:
P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^(2 + 1)
P(X = 2) = 1 / 2^3
P(X = 2) = 1 / 8
P(X = 2) = 0.1250, or 12.50%
Therefore, is the probability that at least 5 people attend the meeting given that at least 2 attend is 12.50%.
