Integers are written without no fractional components so 12 is an integer .
Natural numbers are positive numbers just like the number we count. 12 is a natural number.

Answer:
- B. The probability that the student received a grade better than C is 0.45
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Total number of students:</u>
- 15 + 30 + 35 + 16 + 4 = 100
<h3>Statements</h3>
A.
- p(<D) = 4/100 = 0.04
- 0.04 ≠ 0.2
- Incorrect
B.
- p(>C) = (30 + 15)/100 = 45/100 = 0.45
- 0.45 = 0.45
- Correct
C.
- p(not A or B) = (100 - 15 - 30)/100 = 55/100 = 0.55
- 0.55 ≠ 0.45
- Incorrect
D.
- p(B or C) = (30 + 35)/100 = 65/100 = 0.65
- 0.65 ≠ 0.35
- Incorrect
Answer:
The appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution,
X
Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
Step-by-step explanation:
The random variable <em>X</em> can be defined as the number of American births resulting in a defect.
The proportion of American births that result in a birth defect is approximately <em>p</em> = 1/33.
A random sample of <em>n</em> = 5 American births are selected.
It is assumed that the births are independent, i.e. a birth can be defective or not is independent of the other births.
In this experiment the success is defined as a defective birth.
The random variable <em>X</em> satisfies all criteria of a Binomial distribution.
The criteria are:
- Number of observations is constant
- Independent trials
- Each trial has only two outcomes: Success and Failure
- Same probability of success for each trial
Thus, the appropriate probability model for X is a Binomial distribution, Bin (<em>n</em> = 5, <em>p</em> = 1/33).
