The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) found that the proportion of young adults ages 20–39 who regularly skip eating breakfast is 0.238. Suppose that Lance, a nutritionist, surveys the dietary habits of a random sample of size ?=500 of young adults ages 20–39 in the United States. Apply the normal to find the probability that the number of individuals, X, in Lance's sample who regularly skip breakfast is greater than 123. You may find table of critical values helpful....

The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) found that the proportion of young adults ages 20–39 who regularly skip eating breakfast is 0.238. Suppose that Lance, a nutritionist, surveys the dietary habits of a random sample of size n=500 of young adults ages 20–39 in the United States. Apply the central limit theorem for the binomial distribution to find the probability that the number of individuals, X, in Lance's sample who regularly skip breakfast is greater than 123. You may...

A survey of drivers in the United States found that 15% never use a cell phone while driving. Suppose that drivers arrive at random at an auto inspection station. If the inspector checks 10 drivers, what is the probability that at least one driver never uses a cell phone while driving? (Round your answer to the hundredth.) Suppose the inspector checks 1000 drivers. Use the normal approximation to the binomial distribution to find the approximate probability that at least 13%...
