The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will follow the details provided in the video transcript. ### Step 1: Understand the Mean of the Binomial Distribution The mean of a binomial distribution is given by the formula: \[ \text{Mean} = Np \] where \(N\) is the number of trials and \(p\) is the probability of success. We are given that the mean is 2: \[ Np = 2 \] ### Step 2: Understand the Variance of the Binomial Distribution The variance of a binomial distribution is given by: \[ \text{Variance} = Npq \] where \(q = 1 - p\). We are also given that: \[ \Sigma X^2 P(X) = \frac{28}{5} \] Using the formula for variance, we can express it as: \[ Npq = \Sigma X^2 P(X) - \text{Mean}^2 \] Substituting the known values: \[ Npq = \frac{28}{5} - 2^2 = \frac{28}{5} - 4 = \frac{28}{5} - \frac{20}{5} = \frac{8}{5} \] ### Step 3: Relate \(N\), \(p\), and \(q\) From the mean, we have: \[ Np = 2 \] From the variance, we have: \[ Npq = \frac{8}{5} \] Substituting \(q = 1 - p\) into the variance equation: \[ Np(1 - p) = \frac{8}{5} \] Substituting \(Np = 2\): \[ 2(1 - p) = \frac{8}{5} \] Solving for \(p\): \[ 1 - p = \frac{4}{5} \implies p = 1 - \frac{4}{5} = \frac{1}{5} \] ### Step 4: Find \(q\) Now, since \(q = 1 - p\): \[ q = 1 - \frac{1}{5} = \frac{4}{5} \] ### Step 5: Find \(N\) Using the mean equation: \[ Np = 2 \implies N \cdot \frac{1}{5} = 2 \implies N = 2 \cdot 5 = 10 \] ### Step 6: Calculate the Probability of Exactly 2 Successes The probability of getting exactly \(r\) successes in a binomial distribution is given by: \[ P(X = r) = \binom{N}{r} p^r q^{N-r} \] For \(r = 2\): \[ P(X = 2) = \binom{10}{2} \left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^2 \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^{10-2} \] Calculating \( \binom{10}{2} \): \[ \binom{10}{2} = \frac{10!}{2!(10-2)!} = \frac{10 \times 9}{2 \times 1} = 45 \] Now substituting into the probability formula: \[ P(X = 2) = 45 \left(\frac{1}{5}\right)^2 \left(\frac{4}{5}\right)^8 \] Calculating: \[ = 45 \cdot \frac{1}{25} \cdot \left(\frac{4^8}{5^8}\right) = 45 \cdot \frac{1}{25} \cdot \frac{65536}{390625} \] Simplifying: \[ = \frac{45 \cdot 65536}{25 \cdot 390625} \] Calculating the final result: \[ = \frac{2949120}{9765625} \] ### Final Answer Thus, the probability of exactly 2 successes is: \[ P(X = 2) = \frac{2949120}{9765625} \]
