Explanation / Answer

Solution :

   We are given that : Twenty eight percent ( 28% ) of those surveyed say they are reducing the amount of vacation.

Ten workers participating in the survey are randomly selected. The random variable represents the number of workers who are reducing the amount of vacation.

Since all ten participants are different and selected randomly , with probability of saying they are reducing the amount of vacation is 0.28 , the random variable represents the number of workers who are reducing the amount of vacation follows Binomial distribution.

Thus n = 10

p = 0.28

q = 1 - p

q = 1 - 0.28

q = 0.72
