Answer:

The variance is 129

Step-by-step explanation:

The variance of a binomial distribution is defined as

[tex]np(1-p)[/tex]

where n is the number of trials, and p is the prob of success. So in your case the variance is:

[tex]625\cdot 0.29\cdot 0.71 \approx 129[/tex]

(I am intentionally rounding to nearest integer to make the variance a meaningful value, since the events are discrete and not fractional measurements)
