On average, your professor typically calls on a student every 5 minutes throughout class time. He does not call on the same student twice in a class. Assuming that class is 75 minutes long and there are 32 students in the class, what is the probability that you will not be called upon during class? Does this situation qualify as a Bernoulli Trial?
