Polynomial Applications
Binomial Distribution
Problem 1- Write the binomial distribution for a given trial.
If p is the probability of success, what is the equation for the probability of 4 successes in 6 trials?
|
|
|
P (4|6) = 15p4 (1 - 2p + p2) |
|
|
P (4|6) = 3/2 p4 (1 - p)6 |
|
|
P (4|6) = 3/2 p4 (1 - 2p + p2) |
|
|
P (4|6) = 2/3 p4 (1 - p)2 |
| E. | P (4|6) = 15 p2 (1 - p)6 |
| F. | None of the above |
Problem 2- Write the binomial distribution given the numbers of trials and number of successes.
