According to the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, 6% of American adults have a food allergy. A large company plans a lunch reception for its 500 employees. Assume that employees are independent. Let the random variable X be the number of company employees who have a food allergy. (a) What are the assumptions/requirements of a Binomial distribution? Does this situation meet all these requirements? (b) What are the expected value and standard deviation of X (i.e., of the...

Assume that the proportion of green eyes in the world's population is approximately 080. A random sample of thirty people is taken, and six of the thirty have green eyes. A) Using the normal approximation to the binomial, find the probability of finding six people with green eyes in a sample of thirty B) Repeat part A, but this time use the binomial distribution instead of the normal approximation. C) Compare your results from parts A and B. Does the...

3. A sample of 100 people is drawn from a population of 600,000. If it is known that 40% of the population has a specific attribute, what is the probability that 35 or fewer in the sample have that attribute. (a) Write down the mathematical expression for this probability in terms of a sum of hypergeometric probabilities. (b) Then use R to compute the probability in part (a). Hint: use phy- per( ) function in R. (c) Next, use the...
