How do you solve this problem there are 3 sets of examination in a vocational TESDA course the probability that an examinee will pass in each subject is 80 what is the probability that an examinee pas?

The problem as I understand it is the examinee must pass test 1 and test 2 and test 3. Therefore, the probability of passing all 3 exams is .8*.8*.8 = 0.512.


A test consists of 10 truefalse questions To pass the test a student must answer at least 7 questions correctly on a true-false exam what is the probability that he or she get them all right?

The probability of getting all 10 questions right is, P(10) =(1/2)10 =0.0009765...9 questions right, P(9) =10C9 ∙(1/2)10 =10∙(1/2)10 ~ 0.009765...8 questions right, P(8) =10C8 ∙(1/2)10 ~ 45∙(1/2)10 ~ 0.043945...7 questions right, P(7) =10C7 ∙(1/2)10 ~ 120∙(1/2)10 ~ 0.1171875...The probability of passing the test with any of the grade is the sum of all theabove; P(passing)~ 0.1719 ~ 17.2%

Relationship between Exponential and Poisson Distributions?

Poisson distribution shows the probability of a given number of events occurring in a fixed interval of time. Example; if average of 5 cars are passing through in 1 minute. probability of 4 cars passing can be calculated by using Poisson distribution. Exponential distribution shows the probability of waiting times between occurrences of events. If we use the same example; probability of a car coming in next 40 seconds can be calculated by using exponential distribution. -Poisson : probability of x times occurrence -Exponential : probability of waiting times between events.
