Answer:
The expected number of volunteers in the sample with Genetic condition B is 0.6.
Step-by-step explanation:
The probability of a being born with Genetic Condition B is p = 1/60 = 0.017.
Find the most likely number of the 33 volunteers to have Genetic Condition B.
We can calculate as if it was a binomial distribution, with sample size n=33 and p=0.017.
The expected value of a binomial distribution random variable is calculated as:
[tex]E(x)=np=33*0.017=0.55\approx0.6[/tex]
The expected number of volunteers in the sample with Genetic condition B is 0.6.
