OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

i know its d but i have to show work

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

so how do i prove its d

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

A binomial distribution gives us the probabilities associated with independent, repeated Bernoulli trials. In a binomial distribution the probabilities of interest are those of receiving a certain number of successes, r, in n independent trials each having only two possible outcomes and the same probability, p, of success.

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

but like how would i get that into equation form?

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

yeah idk the teacher said to show work

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

but im not really sure how to

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

but you said they were independent from each other?

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

i thought it was multiplication not addition

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

but then again im not really sure

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

wait nvm they are mutually exclusive right?

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

read the link above

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

so i can answer the question like this n= 8 is the number of fixed trials there are only 2 outcomes, heads and tails P= the probability of the coin landing on heads or tails is 50% or .5

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

that what makes it a binomial distribution right

OpenStudy (jango_in_dtown):

correct

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

okay ill prolly settle for that answer

OpenStudy (thefluffmuncher):

i had one more if you dont mind out helping
