Question 1201255: Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with a trial repeated
n=5 times. Use some form of technology to find the probability distribution given the probability p=0.355
of success on a single trial.

Answer by Theo(13342)   (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
p = .355
q = 1 - p = .655
binomial formula is p(x) = p^x * q^(n-x) * c(n,x)
using excel, i get the following distribution.

p(x) is the probability of getting x occurrences out of n posible.
the sum of p(x) is equal to 1, as it should be.
c(n,x) is equal to n! / (x! * (n-x)!)
