Question

If ? is a binomial random variable, compute each of the following:

(a) ?=6,?=0.1

?(?≤4)=

(b) ?=4,?=0.5

?(?>2)=

(c) ?=6,?=0.1

?(?<5)=

(d) ?=6,?=0.2 

?(?≥5)=

Expert Solution
Step 1

a) 

n=6, p=0.10x=4

By applying binomial distribution:-

P(x,n)=nCx*px*(1-p)(n-x) 

Use the excel formula, "=BINOM.DIST(4,6,0.10,TRUE)" to determine the probability.
