Answer:
D) Yes. The five trials are independent, have only two outcomes, and have the same P(success); n = 5, r = 2, p = 1/6.
Step-by-step explanation:
The Number of boxes = 6
Box containing a prize = 1
Probability of success, p = box containing a price / number of boxes = 1 /6
Number of trials = 5
Probability of success on exactly 2 trials, r = 2
Hence,
P(r = 2) = nCr * p^r * (1-p)^(n-r)
n = 5 ; r = 2 ; p = 1/6
Using a binomial probability calculator :
P(r = 2) = 0.1608

Answer:
A. m(-1)^(n-1)
Step-by-step explanation:
The degree of m doesn't change so none of the expressions with n as an exponent of m can possibly be correct. That leaves only choice A.

You will find that when alternating signs are required, the term (-1)^n will be a factor. An offset of ±1 can be added to the n to make the initial sign be what you want. Here we want +1 for n=1, so an exponent of (n-1) is appropriate.
