Determine whether or not the procedure described below results in a binomial distribution. If it is not binomial, identify at least one requirement that is not satisfied. FourFour hundred different voters in a region with two major political parties, A and B, are randomly selected from the population of 35003500 registered voters. Each is asked if he or she is a member of political party A. Choose the correct answer below. A. No comma the trials are not independent and the sample is more than 5 % of the population.No, the trials are not independent and the sample is more than 5% of the population. B. No, the probability of success is not the same in all trials. C. Yes comma the result is a binomial probability distribution.Yes, the result is a binomial probability distribution. D. No, there are more than two possible outcomes. E. No, the number of trials is not fixed.

Solution

The trials can be treated as independent if the sample is less than 5% of the population.

As 5% of 3500 is 0.05*3500 = 175, and 400 exceeds that, then

A. No, the trials are not independent and the sample is more than 5 % of the population. [ANSWER]
