Question

Would it be unlikely to randomly select four people and find that they all use vision correction? Why or why not?

Expert Solution

Step 1

In this case, each considered people has the only options of "using vision correction" (defined as success) and "not using vision correction". For a finite no. of sampled people (i.e., the no. of trials, $n$ ) with a defined prob. of using vision correction (i.e., the success probability, $p$ ), the variable " $X$ as the no. of people who use vision correction" is claimed to follow Binomial distribution.
