Question

The accompanying table describes results from eight offspring peas. The random variable x represents the number of offspring peas with green pods. Complete parts (a) through (d) Click the icon to view the data a. Find the probability of getting exactly 7 peas with green pods. (Type an integer or a decimal.) More Info b. Find the probability of getting 7 or more peas with green pods (Type an integer or a decimal.) Probabilities of Numbers of Peas with Green Pods Among 8 Offspring Peas c. Which probability is relevant for determining whether 7 is an unusually high number of peas with green pods, the result from part (a) or part (b)? x (Number of Peas with Green Pods 0 P(x) 0+ 0+ 0.002 0.025 0.096 0.194 0.355 0.233 0.095 O O The result from part (b) The result from part (a) 2 d. Is 7 an unusually high number of peas with green pods? Why or why not? Use 0.05 as the threshold for an unusual event. 4 O A. No, since the appropriate probability is less than 0.05, it is not an unusually high number O B. Yes, since the appropriate probability is less than 0.05, it is an unusually high number. ° C. No, since the appropriate probability is greater than 0.05, it is not an unusually high number 0 D. Yes, since the appropriate probability is greater than 0.05, it is an unusually high number 6 8 Print Done

Explanation / Answer

A) P(getting exactly 7 peas with green pods) = 0.233

B) P(getting 7 or more peas with green pods) = 0.233 + 0.095

= 0.328

C) The result from part b

D) C. no, since the approximate probability is greater than 0.05, it is not an unusually high number.
