[Statistics] If n=5, x=0, p=.3, then p(x) = (n/x)(p)^(x)(q)^(n-x). Help :(

Question

shamil98 · Answer

that looks scary.

shamil98 · Answer

Is it just evaluating?..

anonymous · Answer

Yes :'(

anonymous · Answer

If n=5, x=0, p=.3, then p(x) = (n/x)(p)^(x)(q)^(n-x).
Do you want to find the value at x= 0

anonymous · Answer

Yes, but I don't think it lets me go through when x is in the denominator

anonymous · Answer

Yes because n/x= 5/ 0 = becomes indeterminate 
i.e. $$\frac {n}{x} = \infty $$ and the answer...

@ifunfrank

anonymous · Answer

$$p(x) = (\frac{ n }{ x })(p)^x(q)^{n-x}$$
Here is a clearer format of the equation

anonymous · Answer

@ifunfrank Again this is the same as given above...it will also  give the same answer. since x is again as a denominator.

anonymous · Answer

I need an answer to the fourth decimal place and when I put infinity as the answer it says it's incorrect

anonymous · Answer

most probably question could be wrong.
