1. You toss a coin 270 times. Find out the probability that exactly 135 of the 270 tosses will be heads.
2. About 4% of the scientists in National Academy of Sciences believe in PSI (parapsychology such as psychokinesis, telepathy, and astral projection). At the convention 144 members show up. Let X be the number of scientists at convention who believe in PSI. You might suppose for the following questions that X is binomially distributed with the parameters n=144 and p=0.04.
(a) How many scientists at the convention do you expect do believe in PSI?
(b) What are the chances that none of the scientists at the convention believes in PSI?
(c) What are the chances that at least 4 scientists at the convention believe in PSI?
(d) What is the standard deviation of X?
