<PRE><B>Question 300281</B>
At a college, 6 out of 8 students are sophomores.
P(soph) = 6/8 = 3/4
-------------------------------------- 
If 9 students are surveyed, find 
a) the mean = np = 9(3/4) = 27/4
---------------------------- 
b) the variance = npq = (27/4)(1/4) = 27/16
----------------------------- 
c)the standard deviation = sqrt(npq) = (3/4)sqrt(3)
---------------------------------------- 
d) the probability that exactly 3 of the 9 are sophomores
binompdf(9,3/4,3) = 0.0087
---------------------  
e) the probability that at most 3 are sophomores 
binomcdf(9,3/4,3) = 0.0100
---------------------
f) the probability that at least 5 are sophomores?
1 - binomcdf(9,3/4,4) = 0.9511
