The mean and standard deviation of a binomial variate X are 4 and 3 respectively. Then P(X 1) is equal to
Options
- A1- ( 1 4 )¹⁶
- B1- ( 3 4 )¹⁶
- C1- ( 2 3 )¹⁶
- D1- ( 1 3 )¹⁶
Correct answer
B. 1- ( 3 4 )¹⁶
Step-by-step solution
Mean =n p=4 , variance =n q p=3 On solving, we get q= 3 4 , n=16, p= 1 4 Now, aligned p(X 1) & =1-p(X=0)=1- ^n C₀ p^0 q^ n-0 & =1- ( 3 4 )¹⁶ aligned
