#14 Criminal Justice: Parole Approximately 25% of all state prison inmates released on parole

become repeat offenders while on parole. Suppose the parole board is examining five prisoners

up for parole. Let x = number of prisoners out of five on parole who become repeat offenders.

The probability assignment for the x distribution is given in the following table.
