  The questions in the survey relate to the students need for financial assistance. The random variable X represents the number of mature students in the sample. A) hypergeometric; N = 3800, n = 50, k = 280, x = 0, 1, 2, . . . , 50
  B) hypergeometric; N = 3800, n = 280, k = 50, x = 0, 1, 2, . . . , 50
  C) hypergeometric; N = 3800, n = 50, k = 280, x = 0, 1, 2, . . . , 280
  D) not hypergeometric

These people included 55 lung cancer patients, 31 breast cancer patients, and 83 cancer-free patients. The dogs detected 54 of the 55 lung cancer patients as having cancer, detected 28 of the 31 breast cancer patients, and gave only three false-positive results (detecting cancer in people who didn't have it).
