Question

Just answer part c and d the rest are correct A. true/false test has 70 questions. A passing grade is 56% or more correct answers. a. What is the probability that a person will guess correctly on one true/false question? b. What is the probability that a person win guess incorrectly on one question? c. Find the approximate probability that a person who it just guessing will pass the test. d. If a similar test were given with multiple-choice questions with four choices for each question, would the approximate probability of passing the test by guessing be higher or lower than the approximate probability of passing the test/false test/why? a. What is the probability that a parson will guess correctly on one true/false question? (Type an integer or a decimal) b. What is the probability that a parson will guess incorrectly on one question? (Type an integer or a decimal) c. Find the approximate probability that a person who is just guessing will pass the test is Using a normal approximation, the probability that a person who is just guessing will pass the test is (Round to tour decimal places as needed.)

Explanation / Answer

c) p = 0.5 , n =70 , q = 1 - p = 0.5

mean = 0.5 * 70 = 35

Std.deviation = sqrt(npq) = sqrt ( 35 * 0.5) = 4.18

Now, we need to find x

x = 0.56 * 70 = 39.2

P(X >= 39.2)

z = ( x - mean) / s

= ( 39.2 - 35) / 4.18

= 1.005

Now, we need to find p (z > 1.005)

P(X > 39.2) = P(z > 1.005) = 0.1575

d)

p = 0.25 , n =70 , q = 1 - p = 0.75

mean = 0.25 * 70 = 17.5

Std.deviation = sqrt(npq) = sqrt ( 17.5 * 0.75) = 3.63

Now, we need to find x

x = 0.56 * 70 = 39.2

P(X >= 39.2)

z = ( x - mean) / s

= ( 39.2 - 17.5) / 3.63

= 5.97

Now, we need to find p (z >5.97)

P(X > 39.2) = P(z > 1.65) = 0

The approximate probability of passing the test by guessing be lower than the the approximate probability of passing the true/ false test
