Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Number of muffins Diana sold at the bake sale = 336
Number of muffins Bob sold at the bake sale = 287
Now, here we are using the method of estimation i.e. rounding the integers to nearest ones.
By estimation, we get
Number of muffins Diana sold at the bake sale = 340
Number of muffins Bob sold at the bake sale = 290
So,
Difference between them is given by
Hence, Bob sold 50 fewer muffins than Diana.

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve the question, we note that the binomial distribution probability mass function is given by
f(n,p,x) = × pˣ × (1-p)ⁿ⁻ˣ = ₙCₓ × pˣ × (1-p)ⁿ⁻ˣ
Also the mean of the Binomial distribution is given by
Mean = μ = n·p = 25 × 0.2 = 5
Variance = σ² = n·p·(1-p) = 25 × 0.2 × (1-0.2) = 4
Standard Deviation = σ =
Since the variance < 5 the normal distribution approximation is not appropriate to sole the question
We proceed as follows
a. The probability that exactly six are retired people is given by
f(25, 0.2, 6) = ₂₅C₆ × 0.2⁶ × (1-0.2)¹⁹ = 0.1633459.
b. The probability that 9 or more are retired people is given by
P(x>9) = 1- P(x≤8) = 1- ∑f(25, 0.2, x where x = 0 →8)
Therefore we have
f(25, 0.2, 0) = ₂₅C₀ × 0.2⁰ × (1-0.2)²⁵ = 3.78×10⁻³
f(25, 0.2, 1) = ₂₅C₁ × 0.2¹ × (1-0.2)²⁴ = 2.36 ×10⁻²
f(25, 0.2, 2) = ₂₅C₂ × 0.2² × (1-0.2)²³ = 7.08×10⁻²
f(25, 0.2, 3) = ₂₅C₃ × 0.2³ × (1-0.2)²² = 0.135768
f(25, 0.2, 4) = ₂₅C₄ × 0.2⁴ × (1-0.2)²¹ = 0.1866811
f(25, 0.2, 5) = ₂₅C₅ × 0.2⁵ × (1-0.2)²⁰ = 0.1960151
f(25, 0.2, 6) = ₂₅C₆ × 0.2⁶ × (1-0.2)¹⁹ = 0.1633459
f(25, 0.2, 7) = ₂₅C₇ × 0.2⁷ × (1-0.2)¹⁸ = 0.11084187
f(25, 0.2, 8) = ₂₅C₈ × 0.2⁸ × (1-0.2)¹⁷ = 6.235×10⁻²
∑f(25, 0.2, x where x = 0 →8) = 0.953226
and P(x>9) = 1- P(x≤8) = 1 - 0.953226 = 0.04677.
c. The number of expected retired people in a random sample of 25 stock investors is given by
Proportion of retired stock investors × Sample count
= 0.2 × 25 = 5.
d. In a random sample of 20 U.S. adults the probability that exactly eight adults invested in mutual funds is given by
Here we have p = 0.4 and n·p = 8 while n·p·q = 4.8 which is < 5 so we have
f(20, 0.4, 8) = ₂₀C₈ × 0.4⁸ × (1-0.4)¹² = 0.179705.
e. The probability that fewer than five adults invested in mutual funds out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults is
P(x<5) = ∑f(20, 0.4, x, where x = 0 →4)
Which gives
f(20, 0.4, 0) = ₂₀C₀ × 0.4⁰ × (1-0.4)²⁰ = 3.66×10⁻⁵
f(20, 0.4, 1) = ₂₀C₁ × 0.4¹ × (1-0.4)¹⁹ = 4.87×10⁻⁴
f(20, 0.4, 2) = ₂₀C₂ × 0.4² × (1-0.4)¹⁸ = 3.09×10⁻³
f(20, 0.4, 3) = ₂₀C₃ × 0.4³ × (1-0.4)¹⁷ = 1.235×10⁻²
f(20, 0.4, 4) = ₂₀C₄ × 0.4⁴ × (1-0.4)¹⁶ = 3.499×10⁻²
Therefore P(x<5) = 5.095×10⁻².
f. The probability that exactly one adult invested in mutual funds out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults is given by
f(20, 0.4, 1) = ₂₀C₁ × 0.2¹ × (1-0.2)¹⁹ = 4.87×10⁻⁴.
g. The probability that 13 or more adults out of a random sample of 20 U.S. adults invested in mutual funds is
P(x≥13) = ∑f(20, 0.4, x where x = 13 →20) we have
f(20, 0.4, 13) = ₂₀C₁₃ × 0.4¹³ × (1-0.4)⁷ = 1.46×10⁻²
f(20, 0.4, 14) = ₂₀C₁₄ × 0.4¹⁴ × (1-0.4)⁶ = 4.85×10⁻³
f(20, 0.4, 15) = ₂₀C₁₅ × 0.4¹⁵ × (1-0.4)⁵ = 1.29×10⁻³
f(20, 0.4, 16) = ₂₀C₁₆ × 0.4¹⁶ × (1-0.4)⁴ = 2.697×10⁻⁴
f(20, 0.4, 17) = ₂₀C₁₇ × 0.4¹⁷ × (1-0.4)³ = 4.23×10⁻⁵
f(20, 0.4, 18) = ₂₀C₁₈ × 0.4¹⁸ × (1-0.4)² = 4.70×10⁻⁶
f(20, 0.4, 19) = ₂₀C₁₉ × 0.4¹⁹ × (1-0.4)⁴ = 3.299×10⁻⁷
f(20, 0.4, 20) = ₂₀C₂₀ × 0.4²⁰ × (1-0.4)⁰ = 1.0995×10⁻⁸
P(x≥13) = 2.103×10⁻².
h. For part e we have exactly 4 with a probability of 3.499×10⁻²
For part f the probability for the one adult is 4.87×10⁻⁴
For part g, we have exactly 13 with a probability of 1.46×10⁻²
The expected number is 8 towards which the exact numbers with the highest probabilities in parts e to g are converging.
