BINOMIAL EXPERIMENTS Fixed number of trials (n) Independent trials Two possible outcomes each trial (S = success, F = failure) | Examples: Probabilities remain constant each trial BRuwNe Which of the following can be treated as a binomial experiment? Surveyinp 1000 voters to determine their preference for the next president Surveyine 1000 voters to determine whether they would vote in the incumbent Sampling 500 prisoners to determine whether they have been in prison before Sampling 500 prisoners to determine the lengths of their current sentences Testing 300 drivers to determine whether their blood alcohol content levels are more than 0.10% epege p=?(S) = probability of success in one trial a=?!) p+q=l x = # of successes in n_ trials Binomial ? robability Formula P)=(.C.)p a" ? (x) = Probability of x successes inn trials PO)=(,C,) a" Determine ? (x) using the binomial probability formula and table A-1 (p. 727):
