Question

About 1% of the population has a particular genetic mutation. 100 people are randomly selected.Find the mean for the number of people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 100.

Answer 1

Given:

p = 1% = 0.01

n = 100

Let's find the mean for the number if people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 100.

To find the mean, apply the formula:

`\mu=p* n`

Thus, we have:

`\begin{gathered} \mu=100*0.01 \\ \\ \mu=1 \end{gathered}`

Therefore, the mean for the number if people with the genetic mutation in such groups of 100 is 1 .
