According to a 2013 study by the Pew Research Center, 15% of adults in the United States do not use the Internet (Pew Research Center website, December, 15, 2014). Suppose that 10 adults in the United States are selected randomly.

a. Is the selection of the 10 adults a binomial experiment? Explain.

b. What is the probability that none of the adults use the Internet (to 4 decimals)?

c. What is the probability that 3 of the adults use the Internet (to 4 decimals)? If you calculate the binomial probabilities manually, make sure to carry at least 4 decimal digits in your calculations.

d. What is the probability that at least 1 of the adults uses the Internet (to 4 decimals)?

a) For this case we can use the binomial model since we assume independent events and the same probability for each trial is the same p =0.15

b)

c)

d)

And using the result from part a we got:

Previous concepts

The binomial distribution is a "DISCRETE probability distribution that summarizes the probability that a value will take one of two independent values under a given set of parameters. The assumptions for the binomial distribution are that there is only one outcome for each trial, each trial has the same probability of success, and each trial is mutually exclusive, or independent of each other".  

Let X the random variable of interest, on this case we now that:  

The probability mass function for the Binomial distribution is given as:  

Where (nCx) means combinatory and it's given by this formula:  

Solution to the problem

Part a

For this case we can use the binomial model since we assume independent events and the same probability for each trial is the same p =0.15

Part b

For this case we want this probability:

And replacing we got:

Part c

For this case we want this probability:

And replacing we got:

Part d

For this cae we want thi probability:

And we can use the complment rule and we got:

And using the result from part a we got:
