In: Statistics and Probability
CCA has stated in 2017 that 84.3 % of its students are first generation college students. Suppose you sample 15 CCA students and ask if they are first generation college students or not, counting the number of first generation students. a. Create a binomial probability distribution (table) for this situation. (Report answers accurate to 4 decimal places.)
