Question

Determine if the following statement is true or false.

In the binomial probability distributionâ function, nCx represents the number of ways of obtaining x successes in n trials. Choose the correct answer on the below.

A. True
B. False

Answer 1

A. True

Explanation:

The general formula for predicting an outcome in a binomial probability distribution function is: nCx(p)^x(q)^(n-x)

where p is the probability of success and q is the probability of failure

From the above formula; nCx represent the number of ways of obtaining x successes in n trials.

nCx is a combination computation and combination helps to determine in how many ways a certain outcome is possible.
