Explain the significance of binomial coefficients with respect to Bernoulli trials.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The number of outcomes that have exactly x number of successes in nxBernoulli trials is defined as the Binomial Coefficients.

Step by step solution

01

Step 1. Given information.

The given statement is:

Explain the significance of binomial coefficients with respect to Bernoulli trials.

02

Step 2. The significance of binomial coefficients with respect to Bernoulli trials.

Binomial Coefficients:

The binomial coefficient nxis defined as follows:

nx=n!x!n-x!,

where n is a positive integer and x is a non-negative integer less than or equal to n.

As a result, the number of outcomes with exactly xsuccesses in "n" Bernoulli trialsnx is known as the Binomial Coefficients.

Suppose that a simple random sample is taken from a finite population in which each member is classified as either having or not having a specified attribute. Fill in the following blanks.

(a) If sampling is with replacement, the probability distribution of the number of members sampled that have the specified attribute is a distribution.

(b) If sampling is without replacement, the probability distribution of the number of members sampled that have the specified attribute is a distribution.

(c) If sampling is without replacement and the sample size does not exceed % of the population size, the probability distribution of the number of members sampled that have the specified attribute can be approximated by a distribution.

Bilingual and Trilingual. At a certain university in the United States, 62 % of the students are at least bilingual - speaking English and at least one other language. Of these students, 80 % speak Spanish and, of the 80 % who speak Spanish, 10 % also speak French. Determine the probability that a randomly selected student at this university

(a) does not speak Spanish.

(b) speaks Spanish and French.
