Answer: b) rolled three times, number of 2s rolled
d) rolled twice, number of odds rolled
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
A binomial experiment must meet the following criteria:
- There must be a fixed number of trials (rolls)
- Each trial (roll) is independent of the others
- There are only two outcomes (success or fail)
- The probability of each outcome remains constant from trial to trial
a) rolled twice --> satisfies #1 & #2 (n = 2)
X is the sum --> fails #3 (more than two outcomes)
b) rolled three times --> satisfies #1 & #2 (n = 3)
X is the number of 2s rolled --> satisfies #3 & #4 (P success = 1/6)
c) rolled an unknown number of times - fails #1
d) rolled twice --> satisfies #1 & #2 (n = 2)
X is the number of odds rolled --> satisfies #3 & #4 (P success = 1/2)
