Frequently Asked Questions about Binomial Distribution
What is a binomial distribution?
A binomial distribution is a probability distribution that is used when there are exactly two mutually exclusive possible outcomes of a trial. The outcomes are classified as "success" and "failure", and the binomial distribution is used to obtain the probability of observing x successes in n trials.
How do you solve a binomial distribution?
If a random variable X has the binomial distribution B(n, p), then P(X = r) = nCr p^r (1 - p)^(n-r)
What is the binomial distribution formula?
If a random variable X has the binomial distribution B(n, p), then P(X = r) = nCr p^r (1 - p)^(n-r)
What are the properties of binomial distribution?
The properties of a binomial distribution B(n, p), are
1) There are a fixed number of trials, n.
2) There are two possible outcomes, success and failure.
3) There is a fixed probability of success, p, for all trials.
4) The trials are independent.
Why is a binomial distribution used?
A binomial distribution is used to obtain the probability of observing x successes in n trials in a random experiment with 2 possible outcomes.
