4. Suppose that 15% of the fields in a given agricultural area are infested with the sweet potato whitefly. One hundred (100) fields in this area are randomly selected and checked for whitefly. a. What probability distribution should you use here and why? b. What is the average number of fields sampled that are infested with whitefly? c. Within what limits would you expect to find the number of infested fields? d. What might you conclude if you found that x-25 fields were infested?
