Question
A state lottery randomly chooses 4 balls numbered 1 though 43 without replacement. You choose 4 numbers and purchase a lottery ticket. The random variable represents the number of matches on your ticket to the numbers drawn in the lottery. Determine whether this experiment is binomial. If so, identify a success, specify the values of n, p, and q and list the possible values of random variable x.

lottery. Determine whether this experiment is binomial. If so, identify a success, specify the values n, p, and q and list the possib
Is the experiment binomial?
O A. No, because the probability of success is different for each trial.
O B. Yes, there are a fixed number of trials and the trials are independent of each other.
O C. No, there are more than two outcomes for each trial.
O D. Yes, the probability of success is the same for each trial.
Identify a success. Choose the correct answer below.
O A. A success is matching one of the numbers in the lottery.
O B. A success is matching all of the numbers in the lottery.
C. A success is the number of matches on your ticket to the numbers drawn in the lottery.
