A list of the top twenty restaurants in chicago was released. Four of the restaurants specialize in seafood. If five of the restaurants are selected randomly from the list, the standard deviation for the number of restaurants specializing in seafood is.

the standard deviation for the number of restaurants specializing in seafood is 0.8944

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Sum total number N of top restaurants in Chicago = 20

Four of the restaurants specialize in seafood,

then , the probability that a randomly selected restaurant from the top 20 in the list will specialize in seafood will be  p = 4/20

p = 0.2

sample size n = 5

Assuming X to be the random variable that follows a Binomial distribution that represent the number of restaurants specializing in seafood.

Then:

where;

n = 5  and p = 0.2

The standard deviation σ  can be determined by using the formula:

σ = 0.894427191

σ 0.8944

215.92 dollars is the answer
