About 20% of the population experiences "cybersickness.” This happens when the images in 3-D movies look so real they hinder the brain’s ability to sort signals and cause people to get nauseated. To find out if this applies to teens, an SRS of 30 high school students was asked if they experience cybersickness. Eight students said "Yes.” To see if this result is surprising, a simulation is conducted to estimate the probability of obtaining a sample result as high as this.Let 0–1 represent "Yes” and 2–9 represent "No.” Using the line of random numbers, how many "Yes” responses will there be in the first trial of the simulation?
