Question 6

a)



b)i P(red) = 3/8

and P(black) = 5/8

Quarter black means 3 black, 9 red



bii) The most likely number -> the term with the largest probability

C(k+1) > C(k)

12C(k+1) (3/8)^11-k (5/8)^k+1
------------------------------------------ > 1
12C(k) (3/8)^12-k (5/8)^k









Need k = 7 - a term with 12C8

t9 = 12C8 (3/8)^4 (5/8)^8

the most likely combination is 4 red and 8 black

ci) Let An = value of investment at the end of n years





Let M = 1.056





ii)











iii)

Amount invested







interest = $521 275.37

percentage interest = (521275.37/1703 156.94) x 100

= 30.6%
