Answer:

7.3  voters

Step-by-step explanation:

This scenario follows a binomial distribution with the probability of success (voting in favor of the ballot) p =0.42, and the probability of failure (voting against the ballot), p-1 = 0.58. If the number of events is n=30. The variance is given by:

[tex]V= n*p*(1-p)\\V= 30*0.42*(1-0.42)\\V=7.3\ voters[/tex]

The variance for the number who favor the measure is 7.3 voters.
