Answer:
The mean and the standard deviation of the number of students with laptops are 1.11 and 0.836 respectively.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let <em>X</em> = number of students who have laptops.
The probability of a student having a laptop is, P (X) = <em>p</em> = 0.37.
A random sample of <em>n</em> = 30 students is selected.
The event of a student having a laptop is independent of the other students.
The random variable <em>X</em> follows a Binomial distribution with parameters <em>n</em> and <em>p</em>.
The mean and standard deviation of a binomial random variable <em>X</em> are:

Compute the mean of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

The mean of the random variable <em>X</em> is 1.11.
Compute the standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> as follows:

The standard deviation of the random variable <em>X</em> is 0.836.
Note that 8.00 = (2.00)^3, that implies that a decay to 1/8.00 means that the Carbon-14 has passed 3 half-life. (1 to decay to 1/2, other to decay to 1/4, and other to decay to 1/8). And, three half-life is 3 * 5730 years = 17,920 years. So,<span> the answer is that the plant was alive 17,920 years.</span>
