Chapter 6, Problem 75(choose chapter or problem)
Elk Biologists estimate that a baby elk has a 44% chance of surviving to adulthood. Assume this estimate is correct. Suppose researchers choose 7 baby elk at random to monitor. Let X = the number who survive to adulthood. Use the binomial probability formula to find P(X = 4). Interpret this result in context.

ANSWER:Step 1 of 2
Given,
Chance of baby elk surviving to adulthood,
No. of baby elk,
Event: X = the number of baby elk who survive to adulthood.
Using the binomial probability formula we have to find P(X = 4).
