Question:

5.19 Let X be a binomial random variable with n = 20 and p=0.1.

a. Calculate P(X4) using the binomial formula.

b. Calculate P(X 4) using Table 1 in Appendix I.

c. Use the Excel output below to calculate P(X 4). Compare the results of parts

a, b, and

c. d. Calculate the mean and standard deviation of the random variable X.

e. Use the results of part d to calculate the intervals , 20, and 30. Find the probability that an observation will fall into each of these intervals.

f. Are the results of part e consistent with Tchebysheff's Theorem? With the Empirical Rule? Why or why not? Excel Output for Exercise 5.19: Binomial with n = 20 and p = 0.1
