The binominal distribution:
A)is a discrete distribution used to model the number of occurrences in some unit of measure.
B)assumes that the average number of occurrences per unit is a constant and that occurrences are independent.
C)is symmetric irrespective of the value of the probability of success.
D)models n independent replications of a Bernoulli experiment, each with a probability p of success.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The binomial distribution models n independent Bernoulli trials, each with a probability p of success. It is a discrete distribution used to model the number of occurrences in a fixed number of trials, and assumes that occurrences are independent and that the probability of success is constant for each trial. The distribution is not necessarily symmetric and the shape depends on the value of p.
