The probability of a man hitting the target at a shooting range is 1/4. If he shoots 30 times, what is the probability that he hits the target at least 10 times? (Copy your R code and the result) 2. Suppose X follows a Chi-square distribution with degree of freedom 12. Find the cutoff point a, such that, P(X

Explanation / Answer

> ## 1

> p=1/4

> n=30

> x=10:30

> ### here we use binomial distribution

> p=sum(dbinom(x,n,p))

> p

[1] 0.1965934

> ## p is the probability of hitting a target at least 10 times

>

> ## 2

> ## x has chi-square distribution

> n=12

> a=qchisq(0.85,n)

> a

[1] 16.98931

> ### a is the required cutoff point i.e.p(x<a)=0.85

>

> ## 3

> ## scores has normal distribution with

> mean=500

> sd=100

> c=qnorm(0.70,mean,sd)

> c

[1] 552.4401

> ## c gives the required mark to be in first 30% of students

> ## tom scores 585 is more than 552
