Determine the binomial distribution whose mean is `9` and variance `9/4`.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

It is given that mean, i.e. `n p=9 ` and variance, i.e.` n p q=frac{9}{4}`
`therefore frac{{npq}}{{np}}=frac{9}{4} times frac{1}{9}=frac{1}{4}`
Hence, `q=frac{1}{4}`
And ` p=1-q=frac{3}{4}`
When` {p}=frac{3}{4},`
`{np}=frac{3 n}{4} `
`9=frac{3 {n}}{4} `
`Rightarrow {n}=12 `
