For Adam the probability a bull's eye with a bow and arrow is .4.
\n" ); document.write( "Adam will take 5 shots.
\n" ); document.write( "a) What type of probability distribution is this?::Binomial
\n" ); document.write( "------------------------
\n" ); document.write( "b) Complete the chart to show the probability distribution for the random variable X which represents the number of possible bull's eyes its associated probability.
\n" ); document.write( "X = # Bull's Eyes P(X) \r
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c) What is the probability that Adam will get at least 2 bull's eyes?
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: 1-binomcdf(5,0.4,1) = 0.6630
\n" ); document.write( "--------
\n" ); document.write( "d) How many bull's eyes do you expect him to make?
\n" ); document.write( "Ans: E(x) = np = 5*0.4 = 2
