\

A survey had conducted with 420,095 cell phone users.

\

it was found that 135 developed cancer of the brain or nervous system.

\

Survey says that probability of a person having cancer is 0.000340.

\

Find the mean.

\

Here number of samples n = 420095.

\

Probability of a person having cancer is p = 0.000340.

\

Since it follows binomial distribution,

\

Mean \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples,

\

             p is probability of success.

\

\"\"

\

142.8323

\

Step 2:

\

Find the standard deviation.

\

Standard deviation \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples,

\

             p is probability of success,

\

             q is probability of failure.

\

Probability of failure q = 1 - p.

\

q = 1 - 0.000340

\

q = 0.99966.

Step 1:

\

CIA had analyze the frequencies of letters of the alphabet.

\

They had examine the 2600 characters on o page.

\

They found that the letter r is used at rate 6% .

\

Find the mean.

\

Here number of samples n = 2600.

\

Probability of letteris  \"\".

\

Since it follows binomial distribution,

\

Mean \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples,

\

             p is probability of success.

\

Step 2:

\

Find the standard deviation.

\

Standard deviation \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples,

\

             p is probability of success,

\

             q is probability of failure.

\

Probability of failure q = 1 - p.

\

q = 1 - 0.06

\

q = 0.94.

\

Step 1:

\

In Harris poll  370 adults are regret getting tattoos.

\

Based on this poll 20%  say that they were too young to get tattos.

\

Find the mean.

\

Here number of samples n = 370.

\

Probability of adults who regret tattoos  is  \"\".

\

Since it follows binomial distribution,

\

Mean \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples,

\

             p is probability of success.

\

Step 2:

\

Find the standard deviation.

\

Standard deviation \"\".

\

Where n is number of samples,

\

             p is probability of success,

\

             q is probability of failure.

\

Probability of failure q = 1 - p.

\

q = 1 - 0.2

\

q = 0.8.
