52 %of U. S. Adults have very little confidence in newspapers. You randomly select 10 U. S. Adults. Find the probability that the number of U. S. Adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is ​ (a) exactly​ five, (b) at least​ six, and​ (c) less than four.

a. P(x = 5) = 0.24

b. P(x ≥ 6) = 0.43

c. P(x < 4)= 0.14

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the Question,

⇒We use Binomial Probability Formula

Where, p=0.52 & n=10

a. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is ​exactly​ five . So, (x=5)

Thus,

On Solving Above Equation we get,

P(5)=0.2441 ≈ 0.24

b. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is at least 6 . So, (x≥6)

Then,

P(x≥6) = P(6)+P(7)+P(8)+P(9)+P(10)

P(x≥6) = + + + +

On solving above equation we get,

P(x≥6) =  0.4270 ≈ 0.43

c. The probability that the number of U.S. adults who have very little confidence in newspapers is less than 4 . So, (x<4)

Then,

P(x < 4)=P(3) + P(2)+P(1)+P(0)

P(x<4) = + + +

On solving we get,

P(x < 4)= 0.1410 ≈ 0.14
