In a certain college 33 of the physics majors belong to ethnic minorities Find the probability from a random sample of 10 students who are physics majors-Exactly 2 belong to ethnic minorities?

Don't we need to know how many physics majors there are in the college? Also, if you're trying to make a point about affirmative action, please note that the lines are drawn around "underrepresented minorities," not "ethnic minorities." For example, most classified as "Asian-Pacific Americans" would not directly benefit from AA.


What percentage of college freshman take calculus?

The majors that require calculus are all mathematics, science, and engineering majors. These include (but are not limited to) mathematics, mathematics education, science education, biology, chemistry, physics, civil engineering, chemical engineering, biological engineering, electrical engineering, biochemistry, pharmeceuticals, and computer science. So about 99% of students in those majors and related majors will take calculus their freshman year (typically the second semester). I say 99% because calculus is a prerequisite for all other courses in those majors (so it must be taken very early), but there is a very small possibility (I'd say 1% chance) that students can take calculus their sophomore year instead.
