Answer to Problem 40E

The probability of not getting a bonus is 1516 .

Explanation of Solution

Given:

  P(selling 1 policy)=12. .

Concept used:

Binomial probability refers to the probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials in an Experiment which has two possible outcomes common called the binomial experiment.

If the probability of success on an individual trial is p and q where p+q=1 or q=1p .

Then the binomial probability is:

  Cnxpxqnx or Cnxpx(1p)nx .

The probability is minimum 0 and maximum 1 .

  0p(A)1.

If p(A)+p(B)=1 then p(B)=1p(A) .

At least x in the probability means considering the x and greater than x .

At most x in the probability means considering the x and lower than x .

Calculation:

According to the given:

  P(selling 1 policy)=12.P(not selling 1 policy)=12.

The probability of not getting a bonus can be solved through the binomial expression as:

  P(not getting a bonus)=P(less than or equal to 3 policies).1P(4 policies).1C44×(12)4×(12)0.11×116×1.1516.

Hence, the probability of not getting a bonus is 1516 .
