If for a binomial distribution P(X=1)=P(...

If for a binomial distribution `P(X=1)=P(X=2)=alpha, \ write \ P(X=4)` in terms of `alpha` .

Text Solution

Verified by Experts


`P(X=1)=P(X=2)=a `
`P(X=4)=? `
`P(x=r)=\ ^{n} C_{r} p^{r} q^{n-r} `
`P(x=1)=\ ^{n} C_{1} p^{1} q^{n-1} `
`=n times p times q^{n-1}(1) `
`P(x=2)=\ ^{n} C_{2} p^{2} q^{n-2} `
`=frac{n(n-1)}{2} times p^{2} q^{n-2}(2)`
