A safety engineer claims that only $40 \%$ of all workers wear safety helmets when they eat lunch at the workplace. Assuming that this claim is right, find the probability that 4 of 6 workers randomly chosen will be wearing their helmets while having lunch at the workplace.
Some Discrete Probability Distributions
Binomial and Multinomial Distributions
Past surveys show that 40% of the officers at a certain industry own car. Suppose six officers are selected at random from this industry. What is the probability that exactly four will own cars? What is the probability that at least one will own a car? What is the probability that all the six will own a car?

Given the data below, Head injuries Not Injured Wore Helmet 96 656 No Helmet 480 2330 If one of the subjects is randomly selected, find the probability of selecting someone who wore a helmet. (Round to two decimal places) Head injuries Not Injured Wore Helmet 96 656 No Helmet 480 2330
