Solution
8.What properties must be satisfied by a probability distribution?
the sum of its probabilities needs to be 1
the probability ranges always is between 0 and 1
9.What is certain event?
some event that his probability is 1
10.What is an impossible event?
an event that have a probability of 0
11.What is the probability of each simple event in a sample space if there are n equally likely simple events?
1 / n
12.Name the four characteristics of binomial experiment.
1) it consists of a sequence of n identical trials;
2) two outcomes, success or failure, are possible on each trial;
3) the probability of success on any trial, denoted p, does not change from trial to trial;
4) the trials are independent.
13.Give an example of binomial experiment.
some experiment that you have a probability of suceess and fail
and you have some sample (n)
14.Give the formula for calculating binomial probabilities.
P(x=X) = nCx * p^x * q^(n-x)
