Question

Packets of celery seeds contain exactly 10 seeds. Each seed has a probability of 0.85 of growing to maturity if properly planted. The success of one seed does not affect the success of any other seed. Let X represent the number of seeds that grow to maturity. Have the conditions for a binomial setting been met for this scenario? O Yes, all four conditions in BINS have been met. O No, the seeds are not independent of each other. O No, there are more than two outcomes for each seedling. O No, some packets will need to contain more than 10 seeds in order for the binomial setting to be met.​

Answer 1

Answer:

YES:  All four conditions in BINS have been satisfied.

Step-by-step explanation:

Check out the BINS conditions:

1.  Is the number of trials a positive integer?  YES

2. Is the experiment binary:  either PASS or FAIL?  YES

3.  Is the probability of success given and in the range 0<p<1?  YES

4.  Are the outcomes independent?  YES

YES:  All four conditions in BINS have been satisfied.
