1, if right-handed 0, if left-handed. 10. Suppose the probability for a person to be right-handed is p. Let X = (a) What distribution does X follow? (b) A scientist selected a random sample of 1000 people. Let Y be the number of people who are right-handed, what distribution does Y follow? (c) This scientist found out that among the 1000 people, 100 are right-handed. He then estimated p to be 0.1. What theorem justifies his conclusion....
. Spring Breaks ‘R’ Us (SBRU) is an online travel service that books spring break trips to resorts for college students.

Suppose the website had twelve visitors in the last two hours. (a) Let X be the number of visitors (among the twelve) who are college students. What assumptions need to be satisfied in order for X to obey a binomial distri bution? (b) Modeling X as a binomially distributed random variable, what...
