Question
The probability of flu symptoms for a person not receiving any treatment is 0.042. In a clinical trial of a common drug used to lower cholesterol, 47 of 1056 people treated experienced flu symptoms. Assuming the drug has no effect on the likelihood of flu
symptoms, estimate the probability that at least 47 people experience flu symptoms. What do these results suggest about flu symptoms as an adverse reaction to the drug?
(a) P(X247) =
(Round to four decimal places as needed.)
(b) What does the result from part (a) suggest?
O A. The drug has no effect on flu symptoms because x247 is highly unlikely.
O B. The drug has no effect on flu symptoms because x2 47 is not highly unlikely.
OC. The drug increases the likelihood of flu symptoms because x247 is not highly unlikely.
OD
The drug increases the likelihood of flu symptoms because x247 is highly unlikely.
