A poll reported that 66 percent of adults were satisfied woth the job the major airlines were doing. Suppose 25 adults are selected at random and the number who are satisfied is recorded. 1. Explain why this is a binomial experiment.
A. This is a binomial experiment because there are three mutually exclusive outcomes for each trial, there is a fixed number of trials, the outcome of one trial does not affect the outcome of another, and the probability of success is the same for each trial.
B. This is a binomial experiment because there are two mutually exclusive outcomes for each trial, there is a random number of trials, the outcome of one trial does not affect the outcome of another, and the probability of success is the same for each trial.
C. This is a binomial experiment because there are two mutually exclusive outcomes for each trial, there is a fixed number of trials, the outcome of one trial does not affect the outcome of another, and the probability of success changes in each trial.
D. This is a binomial experiment because there are two mutually exclusive outcomes for each trial, there is a fixed number of trials, the outcome of one trial does not affect the outcome of another, and the probability of success is the same for each trial.
2) Find and interpret the probability that exactly 15 of them are satisfied with the airlines.
