A researcher wishes to know the probability that a fixed number of individuals in the sample will have used the emergency room in the last year. To get this information, a random sample of 26 people is selected. a a) Explain why this situation will involve a binomial probability distribution b) Find the probability that in a sample of 26, exactly 12 people used the emergency room c) Find the probability that in a sample of 26, there will be 12 or fewer people used the emergency room
