Answer:

[tex]X=24[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Probability of  having a smoker [tex]P(s)=0.24[/tex]

Sample size [tex]n=130[/tex]

Generally the equation for Variance X is mathematically given by

 [tex]X= np(1-p) =[/tex]

 [tex]X= (130)(0.24)(1-0.24)[/tex]

 [tex]X = 23.712[/tex]

 [tex]X=24[/tex]
