Determine the values of the variables in the binomial probability formula for the following statement: what is the probability of getting exactly 5 “heads” in 10 coin flips? n = p = k =

k = 5  

n = 10

p = 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let X be a discrete random variable. The binomial probability formula is used to calculate the probability of obtaining k-successes in "n" independent trials for an experiment with probability of success p and probability of failure q.

The binomial formula is the following:

Where:

k = number of successes

n = number of trials

p = probability of success

q = probability of failure.

So, for the given problem

k = 5 Because you want to get the probability of getting 5 "heads"

n = 10 Because the experiment is repeated 10 times

p = 0.5 Because the probability of obtaining a "heads" when flipping a coin is 50%

q = 0.5

is only a line? i think so

answer: -0.5 would be the most likley outcome
