Binomial Distribution

Question 1

Let k be the number of successes (green) when the spinner is spun 4 times. The graph shows the distribution of k. Slide the slider to change p. What effect does this have on the distribution? Check all of the boxes that apply.

Revolt · Accepted Answer

The graph is always a binomial distribution.; No matter what p is, k can always be 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4.; For values of p close to 0.5, the distribution is more symmetric.; For values of p close to 1, you’re most likely to get 3 or 4 successes in 4 spins.

Question 2

Suppose you spin the spinner 5 times. means “the probability of getting a vowel on exactly 3 of the spins.”
