The National Vaccine Information Center estimates that 90% of Americans have had chickenpox by the time they reach adulthood.
Suppose we take a random sample of 100 American adults. Is the use of the binomial distribution appropriate for calculating the probability that exactly 97 had chickenpox before they reached adulthood? Explain
Calculate the probability that exactly 97 out of 100 randomly sampled American adults had chickenpox during childhood.
What is the probability that exactly 3 out of a new sample of 100 American adults have not had chickenpox in their childhood?
What is the probability that at least 1 out of 10 randomly sampled American adults have had chickenpox?
What is the probability that at most 3 out of 10 randomly sampled American adults have not had chickenpox.
