In a clinical trial of a cholesterol drug. 365 subjects were given a placebo, and 17% of them developed headaches. For such randomly selected groups of 365 subjects given a placebo, identify the values of n, p. and q that would be used for finding the mean and standard deviation for the number of subjects who develop headaches. The value of n is The value of p is (Type an integer or a decimal.) The value of q is (Type an integer or a decimal.)

Solution

Here n is 365, p is 17/100=0.17 and q is 1-p=1-0.17=0.83
