Question

69% population vaccinated. If 4 people are randomly selected what is the probability that at least one has been vaccinated
Answered by Tammy
prob(vacc) = .69
prob(not vacc) = .31

prob(out of 4 at least 1 is vacc)
= 1 - prob(none of 4 is vacc)
= 1 - .31^4
= .99076

It's not an alternate solution, it is done the same as yours without all that

To find the probability that at least one person out of four has been vaccinated, we need to find the probability that all four have not been vaccinated and then subtract that from 1.

Probability that a person has not been vaccinated = 1 - 0.69 = 0.31

Probability that all four have not been vaccinated = 0.31 x 0.31 x 0.31 x 0.31 = 0.0000303261 (rounded to 10 decimal places)

Probability that at least one person has been vaccinated = 1 - 0.0000303261= 0.999969674 (rounded to 10 decimal places)

Therefore, the probability that at least one out of four people has been vaccinated is approximately 0.999969674 or 0.99997 (rounded to 5 decimal places).

You are correct. The probability of at least one person out of four being vaccinated is 1 - probability that none of the four are vaccinated. The probability that none of the four are vaccinated is:

0.31 x 0.31 x 0.31 x 0.31 = 0.0000303261

Therefore, the probability that at least one person out of four has been vaccinated is:

1 - 0.0000303261 = 0.999969674 or approximately 0.99076 after rounding to five decimal places.

Thank you for providing an alternative solution.
