Question

Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with n equals 8 trials and a probability of success of p equals 0.10. Use a binomial probability table to find the probability that the number of successes x is exactly 1.

 

a. Upper P left parenthesis 1 right parenthesis equals

​(Round to three decimal places as​ needed.)

Expert Solution
Step 1

Given that 

n = 8 , p = 0.10 , q = 1 - p = 1 - 0.10 = 0.90

X ~ Binomial (n = 8 , p = 0.10)

X = Number of trials 

p = Probability of success 

Note : nCr = n! / {r! * (n - r)!}
