Explanation / Answer
here given proportion p=0.59 ;
selected number of US voters=7
a)therefore mean =np =7*0.59 =4.13
b) variance =(np(1-p)) =(7*0.59*0.41) =1.6933
c)std deviation =(variance)1/2 =1.3013
d) above given values indicate that if a large number of sample of 7 US voters to be selected ; on average 4.13 US voters will think that most school textbooks put political correctness above ahead of accuracy with an std error of 1.3013 between samples,
please revert for any clarification
