The proportion of students who own a cell phone on college campuses across the country has increased tremendously over the past few years. It is estimated that approximately 90% of students now own a cell phone and 10% do not own a cell phone. Fifteen students are to be selected at random from a large university. Assume that the proportion of students who own a cell phone or do not own a cell phone at this university is the same as nationwide. What is the probability that all students in a simple random sample of 15 students own a cell phone (hint: find the equivalent probability of the number of students that do not own a cell phone)?
