The probability that exactly 4 are cured from 7 dolphins is 0.0128
Probability is the likeliness of an event to occur and it has a range of 0 to 1, where 0 means unlikely and 1 indicates certainty of the event to happen.
It is given that the 92% of all the dolphins are cured of an ear infection ,When treated with an antibiotic
If there are total dolphins given as 7
On the basis of given data
The dolphin that cannot be cured is given by
1 - p = 1 - (92/100) = 0.08 = 8/100
q = (8/100)
n= 7
r = 4
Therefore by Binomial Distribution
[tex]P = ^nC_r p^r q^{n-r}[/tex]
Putting the values
[tex]P = ^7C_4 (\dfrac{92}{100})^4 (\dfrac{8}{100})^{7-4}[/tex]
[tex]P = \dfrac{7!}{4! \;3!} (\dfrac{92}{100})^4 (\dfrac{8}{100})^{7-4}[/tex]
P = Â 0.0128
Therefore the probability is 0.0128.
