Find the probability of exactly four successes in five trials of a binomial experiment in which the probability of success is 40%. Round to the nearest tenth of a percent.

Respuesta :

Answer: Probability of exactly four success is 0.01536.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of trails = 5

Probability of success is given by

[tex]40\%=0.4[/tex]

Probability of failure is given by

[tex]1-0.4=0.6[/tex]

Number of success = 4

As we know the formula for "Binomial distribution":

[tex]P(X=x)=^nC_xp^{n-x}q^x\\\\Here,\\\\\text{ p denotes probability of success}\\\\\text{q denotes probability of failure}[/tex]

So, it becomes,

[tex]P(X=4)=^5C_4(0.4)^4(0.6)\\\\P(X=4)=1\times 0.4^4\times 0.6\\\\P(X=4)=0.01536[/tex]

Hence , Probability of exactly four success is 0.01536.
