Exam 18: The Binomial Test

In an ESP experiment,the participants are required to predict the suit of a card drawn randomly from a complete deck.If a participant correctly identifies the suit for 18 out of 48 trials,is the participant performing significantly better than chance? Test at the .05 level of significance.

A report noted that for the population of 9th graders,one-third of the students are unable to pass a quiz in basic geography.One teacher,having spent a great deal of time on geography instruction,gave the same quiz to a group of n = 72.Only X = 18 students in the group did not pass the test.The teacher would like to know if the number of students in this class who failed the quiz is significantly different from the general population.For this test,what is the z-score corresponding to X = 18?
