P(“female” chick is actually female) = 0.9 We selected 4 chicks (from ~1000 in the store)

Binomial Random Variables Binomial experiments have… 1) …a fixed number of independent trials… For this exercise, it’s the 4 chicks (arguably independent). 2) a) …two mutually exclusive outcomes per trial… A chick is either male or female. b) …with constant, complementary probabilities from trial to trial. P(female) = 0.9 P(male) = 0.1

Rolling a single die, and counting the pips you get. Does this describe a binomial experiment? Rolling a single die, and counting the pips you get. Roll a single die. If you roll 3, you win $4. If not, you lose $1.

summing the pips you get. Does this describe a binomial experiment? Rolling two dice, and summing the pips you get. Rolling two dice, and betting on 7 or 11. Rolling two dice 5 times, and betting on 7 or 11 each time.

About 7% of American men have red/green color blindness (RGCB). Does this describe a binomial experiment? About 7% of American men have red/green color blindness (RGCB). You select 20 at random and check to see how many have RGCB.

About 7% of American men have red/green color blindness (RGCB). Does this describe a binomial experiment? About 7% of American men have red/green color blindness (RGCB). You keep selecting men at random until you’ve found 20 that have RGCB.

About 7% of American men have red/green color blindness (RGCB). Does this describe a binomial experiment? About 7% of American men have red/green color blindness (RGCB). I think this class has the same proportion. I select 10 men at random from this class and check them for RGCB.

…Max, summer 2010…

= np Assume Max is guessing when he puts his Crocs on, and assume he tries 10 times...is that a binomial experiment? Cool aside: for a binomial RV, = np (n = number of trials, p = chance of success on one trial)

Assume Max is guessing when he puts his Crocs on, and assume he tries 10 times… Cool aside (2) : for a binomial RV, (q = chance of failure on one trial)

Assume Max is guessing when he puts his Crocs on, and assume he tries 10 times…

(a 244 – ish question)... in 10 tries, he got his Crocs on the correct feet only once. Based on your previous answers, do you think he’s guessing when he puts his Crocs on? Why or why not?
