Probability Distributions: Bernoulli Trials & the Binomial Distribution
Recognise binomial conditions, compute binomial probabilities with P(X=r)=C(n,r) p^r (1-p)^(n-r), and find the mean np and variance np(1-p).
- 1.What is a Bernoulli trial?
- 2.Why must the trials in a binomial experiment be independent?
- 3.A Bernoulli random variable has probability of success p = 0.6. State its mean and its variance.
- 4.A Bernoulli random variable has probability of success p = 0.8. State its mean and its variance.
- 5.X ~ Binomial(n = 7, p = 0.4). Find P(X = 1), rounded to 4 decimal places.
- 6.X ~ Binomial(n = 5, p = 0.6). Find P(X = 1), rounded to 4 decimal places.
- 7.X ~ Binomial(n = 5, p = 0.7). Find P(X = 4), rounded to 4 decimal places.
- 8.X ~ Binomial(n = 8, p = 0.5). Find the mean np and the variance np(1-p).
- 9.X ~ Binomial(n = 10, p = 0.8). Find the mean np and the variance np(1-p).
- 10.X ~ Binomial(n = 19, p = 0.3). Find the mean np and the variance np(1-p).
