Accepted Solution

A:
Answer:Step-by-step explanation:Given that According to a video streaming​ service, 48% of American couples are​ "cheaters", that is—they promise each other to watch a film​together, but one of them first watches it alone. Here if this is binomial with two outcomes we can easily say that the other 52% couples go together movies.But here there are not only two outcomes.The other possibilities are:i) Either both do not go to moviesii) Both cheat and go to movies separatelyThus since there are not exactly two outcomes, we cannot say the other 52% go to movies together.As much as say that 52% of couples are not cheating in this way.
