According to a survey, 74% of households said that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. Suppose that this result is true for the current population of households. a. Let x be a binomial random variable that denotes the number of households in a random sample of 10 who have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. What are the possible values that x can assume

Complete Question

According to a survey, 74% of households said that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. Suppose that this result is true for the current population of households. a. Let x be a binomial random variable that denotes the number of households in a random sample of 10 who have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. What are the possible values that x can assume? Integers to . b. Find to 3 decimal places the probability that exactly 6 households in a random sample of 10 will say that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables. Use the binomial probability distribution formula. Probability

a

The possible value of x is 0, 1 ,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

b

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

 The proportion that stated that they have not purchased organic fruits or vegetables is

   The sample size is  n = 10

The possible value x can take is  0, 1 ,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10

Generally the probability that exactly 6  households in a random sample of 10 will say that they have never purchased organic fruits or vegetables is mathematically represented as

Here C denotes combination

So

=>    

4

step-by-step explanation:

set each factor equal to 0

4x-3 = 0

2x-1 = 0

solve for x.

4x-3=0

4x=3

x= 3/4

solve for x. 

2x-1= 0

2x= 1

x= 1/2

eventually after a few more steps, your answer should be 1/2 is less than or equal to x and 3/4 is greater than or equal to x
