Using Probability to Identify Unlikely Events.
Chapter 4, Problem 36(choose chapter or problem)
Using Probability to Identify Unlikely Events. In Exercises 2936, consider anevent to be unlikely if its probability is less than or equal to 0.05. (This is equivalentto the same criterion commonly used in inferential statistics, but the value of 0.05 is notabsolutely rigid, and other values such as 0.01 are sometimes used instead.) At the End of the Day In a Marist poll, respondents chose the most annoying phrasesused in conversation. Nineteen chose at the end of the day, 441 chose whatever, 235chose you know, 103 chose it is what it is, 66 chose anyway, and 75 were unsure. Basedon these results, what is the probability of selecting someone who considers at the end of theday to be the most annoying phrase? At the end of the day, is it unlikely to select someonewith that choice?
