A contest will consist of n questions, each of which is to be answered eithertrueorfalse. anyone who answers all n questions correctly will be a winner. what is the least value of n for which the probability is less than 1/10000 that a person who randomly guesses the answer to each question will be a winner? Pick:	A) 5	B) 10	C) 50	D) 100	E) 1000

A.5   B.10   C.50   D.100   E.1000   Soln: ans is B   Probability that one question is answered right is 1/2.   Now for minimum number of questions needed to take probability less than 1/1000 is   =&gt; (1/2)^n &lt; 1/10000   n = 100 satisfies this.   100
