Question 5 • Algebra II

According to a poll, 56 percent of voters support funding a new community center. A surveyor randomly selects 75 voters and asks each voter if he or she is in favor of the center. If being in favor of the center is a success, what is the probability of a success for this binomial experiment?

Answer
A
0 point 4 4
B
0 point 3 4
C
0 point 5 6
D
0 point 7 5

Explanation

In a binomial experiment, the probability of success, p, is the chance that one trial results in a success. Here, success means a voter supports the center, and the poll says 56 percent do, so p = 56/100 = 0.56. The correct choice is 0.56.
