Customers of a restaurant have been complaining about food poisoning over the past week. A health professional was called to investigate. He tested a representative sample of the eggs and reported that 23% of the sample eggs tested positive for the salmonella bacterium. If a second health professional tests 4 eggs at random, what is the mean of the number of eggs that test positive for salmonella?
