Question
In a survey of 1150 people, 835 people said they voted in a recent presidential election. Voting records show that 70% of eligible voters actually
did vote. Given that 70% of eligible voters actually did vote, (a) find the probability that among 1150 randomly selected voters, at least 835
actually did vote. (b) What do the results from part (a) suggest?
(a) P(X≥ 835)= (Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(b) What does the result from part (a) suggest?
BEETH
OA. Some people are being less than honest because P(x2 835) is at leas%.
OB. People are being honest because the probability of P(x2 835) is at least 1%.
OC. Some people are being less than honest because P(x2 835) is less than 5%.
O D. People are being honest because the probability of P(x2835) is less than 5%.
