Answer:

Expectation=240

standard deviation=3.098

Step-by-step explanation:

This is a binomial probability function with n=250 and probability of success is 96%

-The expected value is calculated as:

E(X)=np\\\\=250\times 0.96\\\\=240

Hence, the expected germination is 240 seeds

b. From a above, we have the value of p=0.96 and n=250.

The standard deviation of germination is therefore calculated using the formula:

\sigma=\sqrt{np(1-p)}, \ \ \ \\\\=\sqrt{250\times 0.96(1-0.96)}\\\\\\=3.098

Hence, the standard deviation of germination is 3.098

hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

lower than Amanda:  816 students

Step-by-step explanation:

An equivalent way in which to state this problem is:  Find the area under the standard normal curve to the left (below) 940.

Most modern calculators have built in distribution functions.

In this case I entered the single command   normalcdf(-1000,940, 850, 100)

and obtained 0.816.

In this particular situation, this means that 0.816(1000 students) scored lower than Amanda:  816 students.
