Answer:
The probability that 6 out of the next 8 individuals in his community are in favor of the president.
P( X=6) = 0.070 or 7 percentage
Step-by-step explanation:
Step(i):-
Given data the researcher has obtained data that states that 45% of citizens are in favor of the president
probability of success 'p' = 45% or 0.45
q = 1-0.45 = 0.55
Given random sample size 'n' = 8
Let 'X' be the random variable
let 'X' = 6
[tex]P(X=r) = n_{C_{r} } (p)^{r} (q)^{n-r}[/tex]
The probability that 6 out of the next 8 individuals in his community are in favor of the president.
[tex]P(X=6) = 8_{C_{6} } (0.45)^{6} (0.55)^{8-6}[/tex]
[tex]8_{C_{6} } = \frac{8!}{(8-6)!6!} = \frac{8 X 7 X 6!}{2 X 1 X 6!} =\frac{8 X 7}{2 x1} = 28[/tex]
P( X=6) = 28 × 0.00830 ×0.3025
P( X=6) = 0.070
Conclusion:-
The probability that 6 out of the next 8 individuals in his community are in favor of the president.
P( X=6) = 0.070 or 7 percentage
