Question:

In a study of 420,095 cell phone users in Denmark, it was found that 135 developed cancer of the brain or nervous system. Assuming that the use of cell phones has no effect on developing such cancers, there is a 0.000340 probability of a person developing cancer of the brain or nervous system. We therefore expect about 143 cases of such cancers in a group of 420,095 randomly selected people. Estimate the probability of 135 or fewer cases of such cancers in a group of 420,095 people. What do these results suggest about media reports that cell phones cause cancer of the brain or nervous system?
