Binomial Distribution (Optional) · Exercise 5
Researchers collected data from 203,967 incoming first-time, full-time freshmen from 270 four-year colleges and universities in the United States. Of those students, 71.3 percent replied that, yes, they agreed with a recent federal law that was passed.
Suppose that you randomly pick eight first-time, full-time freshmen from the survey. You are interested in the number who agreed with that law.
On average (μ), how many would you expect to answer yes?
