Answer to Question #312591 in Statistics and Probability for maggie

Question

A binomial experiment consists of 11 trials. The probability of success on trial 4 is 0.46. What is the probability of success on trial 8?

Answer 1

The probability of success is the same on every tail from binomial experiment properties.

Therefore, probability of success for tail $4$ is the same for all tails including tail $8$ .

From the given information.

$n=11$

Probability of success on each tail

$p=0.46$

The probability of failure;

$=1-probability ~of~success$

$q=1-p$

$q=1-0.46$

$q=0.54$
