Binomial Distribution

The binomial distribution is a probability distribution that models the number of successes in a fixed number of independent Bernoulli trials, where each trial has only two possible outcomes: success or failure.

P(X=k)=(nk)pk(1p)nkP(X = k) = \binom{n}{k} p^k (1 - p)^{n - k}

  • XX is the random variable representing the number of successes
  • nn is the number of trials (a fixed value)
  • kk is the number of successes (k=0,1,2,,nk = 0, 1, 2, \ldots, n)
  • pp is the probability of success in each trial (0p10 \ge p \ge 1)
