Determine whether or not the random variable X is a binomial random variable. If so, give the values of n and p. If not, explain
why not. a. X is the number of dots on the top face of fair die that is rolled. b. X is the number of defective parts in a sample of ten randomly selected parts coming from a manufacturing process in which 0.02% of all parts are defective.
a) X is the number of dots on the top face of fair die that is rolled.
When a fair die is rolled, there will be 1 to 6 numbers on each side with dots in that. Each time a die is rolled the events are independent. Hence probability of getting a particular number in the die is 1/6. There will be two outcomes either the number or not the number. Hence X no of times we get a particular number of dots on the top face of fair die that is rolled is binomial with n = no of rolls, and p = 1/6
b) X is the number of defective parts in a sample of ten randomly selected parts coming from a manufacturing process in which 0.02% of all parts are defective.
Here X has two outcomes whether defective or non defective. EAch part is independent of the other in the sense that the probability for each trial is constant with 0.02% =p and no of trials = n = 10.
I cant really see the letters but the ones that are going straight up. I believe this is the answer because as you can see it's going up without intersecting between each other.
