Capitolo 3, Problema 3.2.26b
"Using the Multiplication Rule In Exercises 19-32, use the Multiplication Rule.
26. Worst President In a sample of 1500 adult U.S. citizens, 690 said that Donald Trump was the worst president in U.S. history. Three adult U.S. citizens are selected at random.
(Adapted from YouGov)
b. Find the probability that none of the three adult U.S. citizens say that Donald Trump was the worst president in U.S. history."
Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Step 1: Understand the problem. We are tasked with finding the probability that none of the three randomly selected adult U.S. citizens say that Donald Trump was the worst president in U.S. history. This involves using the Multiplication Rule for independent events.
Step 2: Calculate the probability that a single adult U.S. citizen does NOT say that Donald Trump was the worst president. From the sample, 690 out of 1500 said he was the worst president. Therefore, the probability that a single person does NOT say this is given by \( P(\text{not worst}) = 1 - \frac{690}{1500} \).
Step 3: Recognize that the three selections are independent events. The probability that none of the three selected individuals say that Donald Trump was the worst president is the product of the probabilities for each individual.
Step 4: Use the Multiplication Rule. Multiply the probability of \( P(\text{not worst}) \) for each of the three individuals: \( P(\text{none say worst}) = P(\text{not worst}) \times P(\text{not worst}) \times P(\text{not worst}) \).
Step 5: Simplify the expression. Substitute the value of \( P(\text{not worst}) \) from Step 2 into the formula from Step 4 and simplify to find the final probability.

Multiplication Rule of Probability
The Multiplication Rule states that the probability of two or more independent events occurring together is the product of their individual probabilities. In this context, it helps calculate the likelihood of multiple citizens independently expressing the same opinion about Donald Trump being the worst president.

Multiplication Rule: Dependent Events
Independent Events
Independent events are those whose outcomes do not affect each other. In this scenario, the selection of one adult citizen does not influence the opinions of the others, allowing us to treat their responses as independent when calculating probabilities.

Complementary Probability
Complementary probability refers to the likelihood of an event not occurring. In this case, to find the probability that none of the three selected citizens say Trump is the worst president, we first determine the probability that one citizen does not hold that opinion and then apply the Multiplication Rule to find the overall probability for three citizens.
