A test has 6 true/false questions. If you guess the answer to each questions, find the probability that you get at least 4 correct answers.
A. 13.4%
B. 24.8%
C. 34.4%
D. 56.6%A test has 6 true/false questions. If you guess the answer to each questions, find the probability...?
this is a problem of binomial distribution.
when probabilities of success / failure are equal,
the formula for k successes in n attempts simplifies to
P[k] = nCk / 2^n
so P[%26gt;=4] = P[4] + P[5] + P[6]
= (6C4 + 6C5 + 6C6) / 2^6
= 22 / 64
= 11/32 or 34.375 % ==%26gt; 34.4 %
ans: [ C ]
