Using the binomial distribution, it is found that there is a 0.0012 = 0.12% probability at least two of them make it inside the recycling bin.
<h3>What is the binomial distribution formula?</h3>
The formula is:
The parameters are:
- x is the number of successes.
- n is the number of trials.
- p is the probability of a success on a single trial.
With 5 shoots, the probability of making at least one is , hence the probability of making none, P(X = 0), is , hence:
1 - p = 0.9908
p = 0.0092
Then, with 6 shoots, the parameters are:
n = 6, p = 0.0092.
The probability that at least two of them make it inside the recycling bin is:
In which:
[P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1)
Then:
Then:
P(X < 2) = P(X = 0) + P(X = 1) = 0.9461 + 0.0527 = 0.9988
0.0012 = 0.12% probability at least two of them make it inside the recycling bin.

Answer:
a) 8*88*10⁻⁶ ( 0.00088 %)
b) 0.2137 (21.37%)
Step-by-step explanation:
if the test contains 25 questions and each questions is independent of the others, then the random variable X= answer "x" questions correctly , has a binomial probability distribution. Then
P(X=x)= n!/((n-x)!*x!)*p^x*(1-p)^(n-x)
where
n= total number of questions= 25
p= probability of getting a question right = 1/4
then
a) P(x=n) = p^n = (1/4)²⁵ = 8*88*10⁻⁶ ( 0.00088 %)
b) P(x<5)= F(5)
where F(x) is the cumulative binomial probability distribution- Then from tables
P(x<5)= F(5)= 0.2137 (21.37%)
