To solve the problem step by step, we will use the properties of the binomial distribution, particularly the mean and variance. ### Step 1: Define Mean and Variance For a binomial distribution with parameters \( n \) (number of trials) and \( p \) (probability of success), the mean \( \mu \) and variance \( \sigma^2 \) are given by: - Mean: \( \mu = np \) - Variance: \( \sigma^2 = npq \), where \( q = 1 - p \) ### Step 2: Set Up the Equations ...
