How do you calculate the mean of a binomial distribution?
Back
The mean (μ) of a binomial distribution is calculated using the formula: μ = n * p.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the standard deviation of a binomial distribution?
Back
The standard deviation (σ) of a binomial distribution is calculated using the formula: σ = √(n * p * (1 - p)).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the probability of getting exactly k successes in n trials?
Back
The probability of getting exactly k successes in n trials is given by the formula: P(X = k) = (n choose k) * p^k * (1 - p)^(n - k).

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What does 'n choose k' mean in the context of binomial distributions?
Back
'n choose k' (denoted as C(n, k) or nCk) represents the number of ways to choose k successes from n trials and is calculated as n! / (k!(n-k)!).

What is the significance of independent trials in a binomial distribution?
