Question 607889: Please help me solve this question
A test consists of 10 true or false questions. If the student guesses on each question: What is the mean number of correct answers? What is the standard deviation of the number of correct answers?

mean:
mu = np = 10*(0.5) = 5
standard deviation:
sigma = sqrt(np(1-p)) = sqrt(10*(0.5)(1-0.5)) = sqrt(5*0.5) = sqrt(2.5) = 1.5811
