1. Are these random variables Discrete or Continuous? a) The number of hits to a website in a day b) The amount of rain in Portland Oregon on a day in the spring. c) The amount of time before your cell phone needs to be recharged. 2. According to the NTSB flights from New York to San Diego are on-time 85% of the time. Suppose 15 flights are randomly selected and the number of on-time flights is recorded. a) Is this a binomial experiment? Why? b) Find and interpret the probability that exactly 10 flights are on-time. c) How is finding the probability of exactly 10 flights on-time different than finding the probability of at least 10 flights on-time or the probability of fewer than 10 flights on-time?
