What is the mean number of yellow eggs in samples of 52 eggs? (that is the same as asking for the expected value of the number of yellow eggs) (Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) mean = What is the standard deviation in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 52? (Give answer correct to at least one decimal place.) standard deviation = What is the variance in the number of yellow eggs in samples of size 52?
