C. What did other video streaming service polls​ reveal?


D. What kinds of films do​ "cheaters" watch?

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that According to a video streaming​ service, 48% of American couples are​ "cheaters", that is—they promise each other to watch a film​together, but one of them first watches it alone.

Here if this is binomial with two outcomes we can easily say that the other 52% couples go together movies.

But here there are not only two outcomes.

The other possibilities are:

i) Either both do not go to movies

ii) Both cheat and go to movies separately

Thus since there are not exactly two outcomes, we cannot say the other 52% go to movies together.

As much as say that 52% of couples are not cheating in this way.
