A sample of 36 homeowners who recently hired a landscpaping sercived yielded the following info about their landscapper. Number of owners 22- yes would recoomend to more friends.5 would not. and 9 are not sure. 3 homeowners who provided info were selected at random. Dtermine the pro they would all recomend their landcapper. What is the pro that 3 homeowners would recomend their landscapper?
(33/36)(32/35)(31/34)
Of the one who would recommend
yes
so all them or just one?
that is the probability of all 3 homeowner randomly selected will recommend their landscaper
you just hav eto multiply the fractions
mulplying them all?
(33x32x31)/(36x35x34)
but it's easier to do it with factorials
33!/[(36-33)!(30!)]
crap made a mistake lol it's 22x21x20/36x35x34
just think probability of first person selected that would recommend landscaper is 22/36, then second is 21/35 since 1 recommender is already picked. then 20/34 since two recommenders are already picked
but wouldnt it come to one answer?
like one fraction alone?
9240/42840 if u multiply the fractions i gave u then u get that
that is the answer
395841600?
no it's 0.2156 or 21.56%
