In a large clinical trial of a new drug 8% of the patients had adverse reactions to the drug. A medical practice prescribes the new drug to 200 of their patients. Would it be unusual for 22 of these 200 patients to have adverse reactions to this drug? (Hint: Use the appropriate binomial formulas to find the smallest and largest usual values; usual values are within 2 standard deviations above and 2 standard deviations below the mean.) O A. Not unusual because 22 patients falls outside the range of usual values for the number patients we would expect to have adverse reactions. O B. Yes, unusual, because 16 is the mean and 22 patients falls inside the range of usual values for the number of patients we would expect to have adverse reactions. O C. Yes, unusual, because 22 patients falls outside the range of usual values for the number of patients we would expect to have adverse reactions. O D. Not unusual because 22 patients falls inside the range of usual values for the number of patients we would expect to have adverse reactions.

In a large clinical trial of a new drug 8% of the patients had adverse reactions to the drug. A medical practice prescribes the new drug to 200 of their
patients.
Would it be unusual for 22 of these 200 patients to have adverse reactions to this drug?
(Hint: Use the appropriate binomial formulas to find the smallest and largest usual values; usual values are within 2 standard deviations above and 2
standard deviations below the mean.)
O A. Not unusual because 22 patients falls outside the range of usual values for the number patients we would expect to have adverse reactions.
O B. Yes, unusual, because 16 is the mean and 22 patients falls inside the range of usual values for the number of patients we would expect to have adverse
reactions.
O C. Yes, unusual, because 22 patients falls outside the range of usual values for the number of patients we would expect to have adverse reactions.
O D. Not unusual because 22 patients falls inside the range of usual values for the number of patients we would expect to have adverse reactions.
