Question 676143: Find the binomial probability P(x = 6), where n = 15 and p = 0.50.
P(x=6) = 15C6(0.5)^6*0.5^9 =

P(X = k) = (n C k)*(p)^(k)*(1-p)^(n-k)

P(X = 6) = (15 C 6)*(0.5)^(6)*(1-0.5)^(15-6)

P(X = 6) = (15 C 6)*(0.5)^(6)*(0.5)^(15-6)

P(X = 6) = (5005)*(0.5)^(6)*(0.5)^9

P(X = 6) = (5005)*(0.015625)*(0.001953125)

P(X = 6) = 0.152740478515625

P(X = 6) = 0.15274
