Binomial Probability Distribution

It is reported that 20% of students are exclusively using smart phones for playing online games.
In a sample of 12 students,
a) Find the probability that no one uses a smart phone exclusively for playing online games.
b) Find the probability that exactly 2 students use a smart phone exclusively for playing online
games.
c) Find the probability that exactly 5 students use a smart phone exclusively for playing online
games.

We will solve this problem by using excel software. Here are the procedures for finding the
solution:
a)when no one uses, success = 0, probability = .20
The result is 0.069 which perfectly matches with the result of Table B.1 .

b) The probability that exactly 2 students use a smart phone exclusively for playing online games
is :
The result is 0.283 .

c) The probability that exactly 5 students use a smart phone exclusively for playing online games:
The result is 0.05 .
Poisson Probability Distribution

It is estimated that 1.5% of the students using smart phones for their study purpose only. What is
the probability that out of 1200 students, at least 25 students are using their smart phones for
study purpose only?
Solution:
The result indicates that 2.4% of 25 students are using smart phones for their study purpose only.

Normal probability distribution


Suppose customers of retail shop Agora have a mean expenditure of 500, standard deviation of
expenditure is 100 and this follows normal probability distribution .We can get answer of
following questions from this information:
a) What is the probability of selecting a customer whose expenditure is less than 600?
b) What is the probability of selecting a customer whose expenditure is more than 600?
c) What is the probability of selecting a customer whose expenditure is between 400 and 600?

Uniform probability distribution


Retail shop Agora offer their own membership card to their customers. A customer with a
membership card gets a 10% discount on purchase .Everyday they serve customer with
membership card which ranges from 12 to 20 .This process follows a uniform distribution.
Suppose we want to ask following questions:
a)What is the mean number of customer?
b) What is the standard deviation of this process?
c) What is the likelihood that number of customers will be less than 15?
d) What is the likelihood that number of customers will be more than 18?
