set
E

An
institute
conducts
a

to
find
out,
in
a
given
population,
the
proportion
of
people
who
are
in
favor
of
a
land
development
project.
To
do
this,
a
random
sam-ple
of
700
people
from
this
population
is
interviewed,
and
each
person
is
asked
a
question.
It
is
assumed
that
whether
a
person
agrees
to
answer
or
not
is
independent
of
the
other
people
questioned,
and
that
the
probability
of
that
person
agreeing
to
answer
the
question
is
equal
to
0.6
.
Assertion
5:
The
probability
of
at
least
400
peo-ple
answering
the
question
has
a
probability
of
0.93
rounded
to
the
nearest
hundredth.
