A particular type of Tennis racket comes in a midsize version and an oversize version. Sixty percent of all customers at a certain store want the oversize version. Among 100 randomly selected customers, let X denote the number ofcustomers who want this type of racket. Compute the approximate probability that X is at least 70.

2.07% probability that X is at least 70.

Step-by-step explanation:

I am going to use the binomial approximation to the normal to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x sucesses on n repeated trials, with p probability.

Can be approximated to a normal distribution, using the expected value and the standard deviation.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

The standard deviation of the binomial distribution is:

Normal probability distribution

Problems of normally distributed samples can be solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean and standard deviation , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

When we are approximating a binomial distribution to a normal one, we have that , .

In this problem, we have that:

.

So

Compute the approximate probability that X is at least 70.

This probability is 1 subtracted by the pvalue of Z when X = 70. So

has a pvalue of 0.9793

1 - 0.9793 = 0.0207

2.07% probability that X is at least 70.

the sum of the lengths of any two sides of a triangle is greater than the length of the third side. if you take the three sides of a triangle and add them in pairs, the sum is greater than (not equal to) the third side. if that is not true, then it is not possible to construct a triangle with the given side lengths.

f(x) = y

f(-3) = -5
