Two candidates are running for president: John Democrat and Joe Republican. A recent survey concluded that Joe Republican had a probability of 0.48 to win the election. One thousand people are interviewed at random about whom they would vote for. A random variable X is defined as the number of people who said they would vote for John Democrat. Find the expected value of the random variable Expected Value = nothing

Scoring a hole-in-one is the greatest shot a golfer can make. Once 55 professional golfers each made holes-in-one on the 8th hole at the same golf course at the same tournament. It has been found that the estimated probability of making a hole-in-one is 12856 for male professionals. Suppose that a sample of 55 professional male golfers is randomly selected. What is the probability that none of these golfers make a hole-in-one on the 13th hole at the same tournament?
