In a certain animal population, for each of the first 3 months of life, the probability that an animal will die during that month is 1/10. For a group of 150 newborn members of the population, approximately how many would be expected to survive the first 3 months of life?
Choose the correct choice from the following answers
A) 110	B) 146	C) 152	D) 162	E) 170
The probability of survival for each of the first 3 months of life is 1-1/10=9/10, so of 150 newborn 150*9/10*9/10*9/10=~110 is expected to survive.   110nswer: 110.
