Mean and standard deviation of binomial distribution

Reference no: EM13103074

A wildlife biologist wants to do a test to see if there is a genetic trait linked to industrial toxins. Previous research says the trait is usually found in one out of every thirty frogs. If there are industrial toxins present in at the test site he would expect to see more frogs with thte trait then exists in the general population. He plans to collect and examine 25 frogs. Assume the frequency of this trait has not changed your answer to the following question.

Calculate the mean and the standard deviation of this binomial distribution.
