Answer:

6.09 is the answer rounded to nearest hundredths.

Explanation:

It gives you n=150, p=0.55, and q=1-p.

If p=0.55 and q=1-p, then by substitution property we have q=1-0.55=0.45.

It ask you to evaluate the expression sqrt(npq).

So npq means find the product of 150 and 0.55 and 0.45. So that is 150(0.55)(0.45)=37.125.

The sqrt(npq) means we need to find the square root of that product. So sqrt(37.125)=6.093 approximately .
