Binomial Distribution _}
Ex . ( 1) A bia sed coin is tossed 6 times. The pro
bability of hea d on any toss
is 0.3. Le t X denote the number of hea
ds tha t comes up.
Fin d (i) P(X=2) (ii) P(X=3) and (iii) P(l
< X ~ 5).
Solution : X denote the number of hea
d tha t comes up.
Th e probability of heads on any toss is
0.3.

Pro bab ilit y of success (p) = 0.3 = 3
