Answer:

You would expect for 35 people to have consumed alcoholic beverages.

Step-by-step explanation:

For each person, there are only two possible outcomes. Either they consumed alcoholic beverages, or they did not. The probability of a person having consumed alcoholic beverage is independent of any other person. This means that the binomial probability distribution is used to solve this question.

Binomial probability distribution

Probability of exactly x successes on n repeated trials, with p probability.

The expected value of the binomial distribution is:

E(X) = np

We learned in Exercise 3.25 that about 70% of 18-20 year olds consumed alcoholic beverages in 2008.

This means that p = 0.7

We now consider a random sample of fifty 18-20 year olds.

This means that n = 50

How many people would you expect to have consumed alcoholic beverages

E(X) = np = 50*0.7 = 35

You would expect for 35 people to have consumed alcoholic beverages.
