A racecar driver has a 0.05 probability of winning any given race in a season. There are 16 races in a season, and whether or not the driver wins one race is independent of whether he wins any other race. Let X represent the number of races the driver wins in the season.Have the conditions for a binomial setting been met for this scenario?
