Question #b1268
1 Answer
Firstly we would like to solve for
And we would get
This solution can be done using the Binomial Distribution
Thus giving us.
But here is the reason as to why- the long way
So we are looking for all the different ways that a child can find
We know that
So let us look at one option, which would be getting the egg with $10.00 of the first trial and not getting on the others.
which will give us:
(The fist egg is a success and the others are not)
now we look at when the second egg is a success:
and the third egg:
and now the fourth egg:
and we know that for one of four eggs to have the $10.00 bill, it is either the
Thus we get that the probability of the child having one of its 4 eggs have a $10.00 bill is
