2 Stats SB Notes 42 Completednotebook February 22, 2017 Section 42 Binomial Distributions Section 42 Objectives How to determine whether a probability experiment is a binomial experiment How to find binomial probabilities using the binomial probability formula How to find binomial probabilities using technology, formulas, and a binomial table How to construct and graph a binomial distribution How to find the mean, variance, and standard deviation of a binomial probability distribution
3 Stats SB Notes 42 Completednotebook February 22, 2017 Binomial Experiments The experiment is repeated for a fixed number of trials, where each trial is independent of other trials There are only two possible outcomes of interest for each trial The outcomes can be classified as a success (S) or as a failure (F) The probability of a success, P(S), is the same for each trial The random variable x counts the number of successful trials Notation for Binomial Experiments Symbol n p = P(S) q = P(F) x Description The number of times a trial is repeated The probability of success in a single trial The probability of failure in a single trial (q = 1 p) The random variable represents a count of the number of successes in n trials: x = 0, 1, 2, 3,, n
4 Stats SB Notes 42 Completednotebook February 22, 2017 Example: Binomial Experiments Decide whether the experiment is a binomial experiment If it is, specify the values of n, p, and q, and list the possible values of the random variable x A certain surgical procedure has an 85% chance of success A doctor performs the procedure on eight patients The random variable represents the number of successful surgeries Solution: Binomial Experiments Binomial Experiment Each surgery represents a trial There are eight surgeries, and each one is independent of the others There are only two possible outcomes of interest for each surgery: a success (S) or a failure (F) The probability of a success, P(S), is 085 for each surgery The random variable x counts the number of successful surgeries
5 Stats SB Notes 42 Completednotebook February 22, 2017 Solution: Binomial Experiments Binomial Experiment n = 8 (number of trials) p = 085 (probability of success) q = 1 p = = 015 (probability of failure) x = 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 (number of successful surgeries) Example: Binomial Experiments Decide whether the experiment is a binomial experiment If it is, specify the values of n, p, and q, and list the possible values of the random variable x A jar contains five red marbles, nine blue marbles, and six green marbles You randomly select three marbles from the jar, without replacement The random variable represents the number of red marbles
6 Stats SB Notes 42 Completednotebook February 22, 2017 Solution: Binomial Experiments Not a Binomial Experiment The probability of selecting a red marble on the first trial is 5/20 Because the marble is not replaced, the probability of success (red) for subsequent trials is no longer 5/20 The trials are not independent and the probability of a success is not the same for each trial Try It Yourself 1, pg 202 Is the experiment binomial? n = p = q = x = Feb 22 12:35 PM
7 Stats SB Notes 42 Completednotebook February 22, 2017 Binomial Probability Formula Binomial Probability Formula The probability of exactly x successes in n trials is n = number of trials p = probability of success q = 1 p probability of failure x = number of successes in n trials Note: number of failures is n x Example: Finding Binomial Probabilities Microfracture knee surgery has a 75% chance of success on patients with degenerative knees The surgery is performed on three patients Find the probability of the surgery being successful on exactly two patients
