\n Instructions:\n <\/p>\n
\n For your initial post you will make up a problem similar to the above example.\u00a0 NOTE:\u00a0 \u00a0Do not solve your own problem.(Remember that your problem must satisfy all the qualities of a binomial experiment – see above).\u00a0\u00a0Then you will answer 2 classmates problems showing your work using Excel.\n <\/p>\n
\n The binomial distribution has five characteristics:\n <\/p>\n
\n Sample Binomial Experiment – this would be in your initial post:\n <\/p>\n
\n A couple has 8 children (n = 8 trials).\u00a0 We will assume that the probability of having a boy (arbitrarily defined as a “success”) is p = 0.5.\n <\/p>\n
\n a) Determine the probability the\u00a0couple has exactly 5 boys.\n <\/p>\n
\n b) Determine the probability that they have more than 5 boys.\n <\/p>\n
\n c) Determine the probability that they have at most 5 boys.\n <\/p>\n
\n Solution – this would be in your response post:\n <\/p>\n
\n a) exactly 5 boys.\u00a0\u00a0Type this into Excel:\u00a0\u00a0=binom.dist(5,8,.5,False)\u00a0 Answer:\u00a0\u00a0.21875\n <\/p>\n
\n The probability of having exactly 5 boys is 0.22\n <\/p>\n
\n b) More than 5 boys:\u00a0\u00a0=1-binom.dist(5,8,.5,True)\n <\/p>\n
\n The probability of having more than 5 boys is\u00a0.144531\n <\/p>\n
\n c) at most 5 boys:\u00a0\u00a0=binom.dist(5,8,.5,True)\n <\/p>\n
\n The probability of having at most 5 boys is\u00a0.855469\n <\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
