The probability that a board member votes yes on at least one motion is \( \frac{19}{27} \).

Solución

The voting behavior for each motion is modeled such that a board member can vote: - Yes (Y) - No (N) - Abstain (A) Since each vote is independent, the total number of outcomes (the sampling space) for three motions is \[ 3^3 = 27. \] For each motion, the probability of any specified vote (Y, N, or A) is \[ \frac{1}{3}. \] **(c) Probability of voting abstain, no, yes in that order** The probability is calculated by multiplying the independent probabilities: \[ P(A, N, Y) = \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} \times \frac{1}{3} = \frac{1}{27}. \] **(d) Probability of voting yes on exactly one of the motions** There are \(\binom{3}{1} = 3\) ways to choose which motion gets a yes. For the chosen motion, the probability of yes is \(\frac{1}{3}\), and for each of the other two motions, the probability of not yes (either no or abstain) is \(\frac{2}{3}\). Thus: \[ P(\text{exactly one yes}) = \binom{3}{1} \cdot \frac{1}{3} \cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^2 = 3 \cdot \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{4}{9} = \frac{4}{9}. \] **(e) Probability of voting yes on at least one motion** The complement is voting no yes on any motion (i.e., voting not yes on all three motions). The probability for not yes on any single motion is \(\frac{2}{3}\), so: \[ P(\text{no yes votes}) = \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^3 = \frac{8}{27}. \] Thus, the probability of voting yes on at least one motion is: \[ P(\text{at least one yes}) = 1 - \frac{8}{27} = \frac{19}{27}. \]

Extra Insights

Getting into the world of probability, particularly in voting scenarios, can feel like diving into a sea of numbers! To determine the probability of various outcomes, we can break it down systematically. For instance, if a board member has three motions to vote on and options of abstain, no, or yes on each, you need to assess how each vote influences the overall probability. Think of it like rolling dice—every choice can change the game! For further exploration, consider helpful resources such as "Introduction to Probability" by Dimitri P. Bertsekas and John N. Tsitsiklis. This book does a fantastic job simplifying complex concepts and provides real-world applications that can help you connect the dots between abstract math and everyday scenarios, like decision-making in boards or committees!
