The CDC reported in 2012 that 1 in 88 American children had been diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder (ASD).

a. If a random sample of 300 children is selected, let X be the number of these children who have been diagnosed with ASD. What distribution does X follow? What is the expected value and standard deviation of X?
b. Approximate the probability that fewer than 2 children in the sample have been diagnosed with ASD, using a Poisson distribution.

Calculate the missing value. round the answer to on decimal place. start with 70, increase it by 21%, and end up with

Acaterer knows he will need 60, 50, 80, 40 and 50 dinner napkins on five successive evenings. he can purchase new napkins initially at 25 cents each, after which he can have dirty napkins laundered by a fast one-day laundry service (i.e., dirty napkins given at the end of the day will be ready for use the following day) at 15 cents each, or by a slow two-day service at 8 cents each or both. the caterer wants to know how many napkins he should purchase initially and how many dirty napkins should be laundered by fast and slow service on each of the days in order to minimize his total costs. formulate the caterer’s problem as a linear program as follows (you must state any assumptions you make): a. define all variables clearly. how many are there? b. write out the constraints that must be satisfied, briefly explaining each. (do not simplify.) write out the objective function to be minimized. (do not simplify.)

Idon't want to fail summer school.the probabilities of contamination in medicine capsules due to the presence of heavy metals and different types of microbes are given in the table.the probability of capsule b having microbial contamination is (the same as, greater than, less than) the probability of capsule d having it.
