We are asked to construct a binomial distribution.
We have given of voters think that Congress should help write standards for school food.
You randomly select six voters and ask them whether Congress should help write standards for school food.
Let represents the number of voters who think that Congress should help write standards for school food.
A binomial distribution represented by the following formula,
