It is estimated that 52% of drivers text while driving . What is the probability the next driver texting while driving that a police officer pulls over is the fifth driver?

Respuesta :

Answer:

0.0276

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the probability that the next driver is texting while driving is shown below:

= Fourth pull failure × fifth pull success

where,

Fourth pull failure is (1 - 0.52)^4

And, the fifth pull success is 0.52

Now placing these values to the above formula

So,

= (1 - 0.52)^4 × 0.52

= 0.0276

Hence, the probability is 0.0276
