A researcher determines that the probability of missing class among students at a local school is p = .16. Assuming that the school has 300 students enrolled, how many students can we expect to miss class on a given day? Hint: This is a binomial probability distribution.

Respuesta :

Answer: 48 students

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of missing class= 0.16

Total number of students= 300

Expected number of students to miss class will be probability of missing class multiplied by total number of students.

= 0.16 × 300

= 48

The total number of students expected to miss class are 48 students.
