Question 1a) Suppose you sample 100 times at random with replacement from a population in which 26% of the individuals are successes. Write a Python expression that evaluates to the chance that the sample has 20 successes.

from math import comb

n = 100

x = 20

p = 0.26

q = 0.76

print(comb(n, x)*(p**x)*(q**(n-x)))

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Number of trials, n = 100

P(success), p = 26% = 0.26

P(success)' = 1 - p = 1 - 0.26 = 0.74

Chance that sample has 20 successes = x

This problem meets the condition for a binomial probability distribution :

p(x = 20)

Recall :

P(x = x) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)

Using python :

comb is an built in function which calculate the combination of two arguments it takes ; and returns the combination value.

** mean raised to the power and

* is used for multiplication

tangent

step-by-step explanation:

you didn't post any answer choices, so its not 100% clear what your teacher is looking for

however, log(15/7) is equivalent to log(15) - log(7)

i'm using the rule log(x/y) = log(x) - log(y)
