FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the formula to calculate the standard deviation of a binomial distribution?

Back

The standard deviation of a binomial distribution is calculated using the formula: σ = √(npq), where q = 1 - p.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the probability of getting exactly k successes in n trials in a binomial distribution?

Back

The probability of getting exactly k successes in n trials is given by the formula: P(X = k) = (n choose k) * p^k * q^(n-k), where q = 1 - p.

What does 'n choose k' mean in the context of binomial distribution?

Back

'n choose k' refers to the number of ways to choose k successes from n trials, calculated as n! / (k!(n-k)!).
