help me if x is the random variable such that E(x)=2.4,P=0.6,find the value of n and standard deviation

OpenStudy (zarkon):

is \(X\) binomial?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

binomial

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[E[X]=np\] so \[np=2.4\] and \[n=\frac{2.4}{p}\] plug in your value of \(p\)

OpenStudy (zarkon):

\[Var[X]=npq\] so \[Sd[X]=\sqrt{npq}\] where \(q=1-p\)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

thankx much in deed

OpenStudy (zarkon):

no problem
