A Department of Transportation report about air travel found that, nationwide, 78% of all flights are on time. Suppose a random
sample of 50 flights is selected from all nationwide flights that were completed in the past 30 days (over 1000 flights). Let the random variable X be defined as the number of sampled flights that arrived on time. What is the value of the n parameter of the binomial random variable X?
The value of parameter n of binomial random variable is 50.
Step-by-step explanation:
The value of n parameter is 50 because it is the size of sample of flights. In binomial experiment the process is repeated fixed n number of times and here in the given scenario random sample of 50 flights is the n which is fixed throughout the process.
