if the probability that a baby born in a certain hospital will speak in the next day is , what is the probability that at least babies out of a cluster of babies will speak tomorrow?



Answer :

The probability that at least 2 babies out of a cluster of 5 babies will speak tomorrow is 47/128.

The probability that less than 2 babies will speak is

5C0 * (0.25)^0 * (0.75)^5 +  5C1 * (0.25)^1 * (0.75)^4

= (0.75)^5 +  5 * 0.25 * (0.75)^4

(0.75)^5+5*0.25*(0.75)^4 = 81/128

Therefore,

probability that 2 or more will speak is  

=  1- 81/128 = 47/128

The binomial distribution with parameters n and p is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a series of n independent experiments, each asking a yes-or-no question and having its own Boolean-valued outcome: success (with probability p) or failure (with probability display style q=1-pq=1-p).

This distribution is used in probability theory and statistics. A Bernoulli trial, or experiment, is another name for a single success-or-failure experiment, and a Bernoulli process is another name for a series of results.
