9. One of the initial clinical trials of the anti-math anxiety drug SHOVITALL™ tested for the presence of headaches as a side effect. In the trial, 450 subjects were treated with 80mg of the drug, and 2.2% of the subjects developed headaches. In the binomial distribution of these 450 subjects, what are the mean and standard deviation? Use ∏ = 0.022
Answers: Mean = _______________ Standard Deviation = _________________
