Question 1161875: Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with a trial repeated n=10times. Use either the binomial probability formula to find the probability of k=9successes given the probability q=0.49 of failure on a single trial. Hint: First find the probability of a success, p.
(Report answer accurate to 4 decimal places.)
P(X=k)=

You can put this solution on YOUR website!
so probability of 9 successes with prob. 0.51 for a success
this is 10 (ways it can happen)0.51^9*0.49^1=0.0114
alternatively, use 2nd VARS and scroll down to binomialpdf and enter (10,0.51,9) ENTER
