Mr. Jackson likes to play a game in which rolling a 4 on a number cube doubles your score. He wants to know the probability that he will roll a 4 exactly 3 times out of 10 rolls. Define the variables for describing a binomial probability, and identify their values in this experiment.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Binomial Probability

P(x) =  n!/(n-x)!x! * p^x q^(n-x)

P(x) = probability there will be x required outcomes (here x is 3)

n = number of trials (here it is 10)

p = probability of 1 required outcome (getting a 4) on a single roll ( = 1/6).

q = probability of required outcome not occurring on a single roll.

p = 1/6

q = 1 -1/6 = 5/6

n = 10

x = 3

So the required probability

= 10!/ 7!3! (1/6)^3 (5/6)^7

= 0.155.
