On a certain statistics exam, there are 9 multiple choice
questions. Each question has 5 possible answers to choose from (and
only 1 correct answer). Suppose you didn’t study at all and are
planning on guessing the correct answer for each question.
Therefore, the probability of guessing a question correctly is
___________ . (Round to two decimals)
Let X = number of questions the student guesses
correctly
(Round all answers to four decimals)
