The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to find the value of \( n \) such that the probability of at least one success in a binomial distribution \( B(n, p = \frac{1}{4}) \) is greater than or equal to \( \frac{9}{10} \). ### Step-by-step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Probability of At Least One Success**: The probability of at least one success can be expressed as: \[ P(X \geq 1) = 1 - P(X = 0) \] where \( P(X = 0) \) is the probability of zero successes. 2. **Calculating \( P(X = 0) \)**: For a binomial distribution, the probability of zero successes is given by: \[ P(X = 0) = \binom{n}{0} p^0 (1-p)^n = (1-p)^n \] Here, \( p = \frac{1}{4} \) and \( 1 - p = \frac{3}{4} \). Thus: \[ P(X = 0) = \left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^n \] 3. **Setting Up the Inequality**: We want: \[ 1 - P(X = 0) \geq \frac{9}{10} \] Substituting \( P(X = 0) \): \[ 1 - \left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^n \geq \frac{9}{10} \] 4. **Rearranging the Inequality**: Rearranging gives: \[ \left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^n \leq \frac{1}{10} \] 5. **Taking Logarithms**: Taking logarithms on both sides: \[ \log\left(\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)^n\right) \leq \log\left(\frac{1}{10}\right) \] This simplifies to: \[ n \cdot \log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right) \leq \log\left(\frac{1}{10}\right) \] 6. **Solving for \( n \)**: Since \( \log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right) \) is negative, we can divide by it, which reverses the inequality: \[ n \geq \frac{\log\left(\frac{1}{10}\right)}{\log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right)} \] 7. **Simplifying the Logs**: We know: \[ \log\left(\frac{1}{10}\right) = -1 \quad \text{(since } 10^1 = 10\text{)} \] and using the property of logs: \[ \log\left(\frac{3}{4}\right) = \log(3) - \log(4) \] Thus: \[ n \geq \frac{-1}{\log(3) - \log(4)} = \frac{1}{\log(4) - \log(3)} \] 8. **Final Result**: This can be expressed in terms of base 10 logarithms: \[ n \geq \frac{1}{\log_{10}(4) - \log_{10}(3)} \] ### Conclusion: The value of \( n \) must be greater than \( \frac{1}{\log_{10}(4) - \log_{10}(3)} \).
