Question Type 1: Finding the probability of outcomes for binomial distribution using the GDC Bootcamps
Question 1
Skill question
A factory produces electronic components. Each component has an 80% chance of passing quality control. If 100 components are tested, find the probability that more than 65 pass quality control. Use a GDC to compute your answer.
Question 2
Skill question
An online platform estimates an 80% success rate for signup completions. Out of 100 visitors, find the probability fewer than 60 complete signup. Use GDC.
Question 3
Skill question
A clinical trial shows each patient has an 80% chance of recovery. If 100 patients are treated, find the probability that at most 70 recover. Compute your answer using a GDC.
Question 4
Skill question
A production line has an 80% success rate per item. For a lot of 100, find P(78≤X≤85) where X∼B(100,0.8) using a GDC.
Question 5
Skill question
In a large batch of widgets, the defect rate is 20%. From a random sample of 100 widgets, find the probability that between 60 and 75 non-defective widgets are found (inclusive). Use a GDC.
Question 6
Skill question
A telecommunications company defines a call success probability of 0.8. For 100 call attempts, find the probability of at least 80 successful connections. Use a GDC.
Question 7
Skill question
In a study, the probability of success on a new drug is 0.8. In 100 trials, what is the probability exactly 85 patients respond positively? Use a GDC.
Question 8
Skill question
Calculate P(∣X−80∣>10) for X∼B(100,0.8) using a GDC.
Question 9
Skill question
For X∼B(100,0.8), find the most probable number of successes (the mode). Use reasoning or a GDC to support your answer.
Question 10
Skill question
Find the smallest integer k such that P(X<k)≥0.95 where X∼B(100,0.8). Use a GDC to determine k.
Question 11
Skill question
Determine the value k such that P(X≥k)≤0.1 for X∼B(100,0.8). Use a GDC.
