A goalkeeper catches 30% of all penalty kicks against her team. \ \ \ \ a. What is the probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2? \ \ \ \ b. What is the probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2 or more.

\

 

\

A goalkeeper catches 30% of all penalty kicks.

\

Find the probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2.

\

Let \"\" be the event that the goalkeeper catches 2 out of 5 penalty kicks. \ \

\

Success rate of goalkeeper is 30% = 0.30.

\

The probability for k successes is \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples(trails),

\

           p is probability of success,

\

          q  is probability of failure.

\

Probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2 is \"\".

\

\"\"

\

Probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2 is 0.3087.

\

 

\

 

\

 

\

(b)

\

Success rate of goalkeeper is 30% = 0.30.

\

Find the probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2 or more.

\

Let \"\" be the event that the goalkeeper catches 2 or more out of 5 penalty kicks. \ \

\

The probability for k successes is \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples(trails),

\

           p is probability of success,

\

          q  is probability of failure.

\

Probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2 or more is \"\".

\

Property of probability: \"\".

\

Hence \"\".

\

\

\"\"

\

Probability that out of 5 penalty kicks she catches 2 or more is 0.47.
