The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we will calculate the probabilities \( P(r) \) for \( r = 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 \) using the recurrence formula of the binomial distribution for the two cases given: \( p = \frac{1}{3}, n = 5 \) and \( p = \frac{1}{6}, n = 5 \). ### Part (i): \( p = \frac{1}{3}, n = 5 \) 1. **Calculate \( P(1) \)**: \[ P(1) = \binom{5}{1} \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^1 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{5-1} \] \[ = 5 \cdot \frac{1}{3} \cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^4 = 5 \cdot \frac{1}{3} \cdot \frac{16}{81} = \frac{80}{243} \approx 0.329 \] 2. **Calculate \( P(2) \)**: \[ P(2) = \binom{5}{2} \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^2 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{5-2} \] \[ = 10 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^2 \cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^3 = 10 \cdot \frac{1}{9} \cdot \frac{8}{27} = \frac{80}{243} \approx 0.329 \] 3. **Calculate \( P(3) \)**: \[ P(3) = \binom{5}{3} \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^3 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{5-3} \] \[ = 10 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^3 \cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^2 = 10 \cdot \frac{1}{27} \cdot \frac{4}{9} = \frac{40}{243} \approx 0.165 \] 4. **Calculate \( P(4) \)**: \[ P(4) = \binom{5}{4} \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^4 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{5-4} \] \[ = 5 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^4 \cdot \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^1 = 5 \cdot \frac{1}{81} \cdot \frac{2}{3} = \frac{10}{243} \approx 0.041 \] 5. **Calculate \( P(5) \)**: \[ P(5) = \binom{5}{5} \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^5 \left(\frac{2}{3}\right)^{5-5} \] \[ = 1 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{3}\right)^5 \cdot 1 = \frac{1}{243} \approx 0.004 \] ### Summary of Probabilities for \( p = \frac{1}{3}, n = 5 \): - \( P(1) \approx 0.329 \) - \( P(2) \approx 0.329 \) - \( P(3) \approx 0.165 \) - \( P(4) \approx 0.041 \) - \( P(5) \approx 0.004 \) ### Part (ii): \( p = \frac{1}{6}, n = 5 \) 1. **Calculate \( P(1) \)**: \[ P(1) = \binom{5}{1} \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^1 \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{5-1} \] \[ = 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} \cdot \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^4 = 5 \cdot \frac{1}{6} \cdot \frac{625}{1296} = \frac{3125}{7776} \approx 0.402 \] 2. **Calculate \( P(2) \)**: \[ P(2) = \binom{5}{2} \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^2 \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{5-2} \] \[ = 10 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^2 \cdot \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^3 = 10 \cdot \frac{1}{36} \cdot \frac{125}{216} = \frac{1250}{7776} \approx 0.161 \] 3. **Calculate \( P(3) \)**: \[ P(3) = \binom{5}{3} \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^3 \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{5-3} \] \[ = 10 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^3 \cdot \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^2 = 10 \cdot \frac{1}{216} \cdot \frac{25}{36} = \frac{250}{7776} \approx 0.032 \] 4. **Calculate \( P(4) \)**: \[ P(4) = \binom{5}{4} \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^4 \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{5-4} \] \[ = 5 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^4 \cdot \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^1 = 5 \cdot \frac{1}{1296} \cdot \frac{5}{6} = \frac{25}{7776} \approx 0.003 \] 5. **Calculate \( P(5) \)**: \[ P(5) = \binom{5}{5} \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^5 \left(\frac{5}{6}\right)^{5-5} \] \[ = 1 \cdot \left(\frac{1}{6}\right)^5 \cdot 1 = \frac{1}{7776} \approx 0.0001 \] ### Summary of Probabilities for \( p = \frac{1}{6}, n = 5 \): - \( P(1) \approx 0.402 \) - \( P(2) \approx 0.161 \) - \( P(3) \approx 0.032 \) - \( P(4) \approx 0.003 \) - \( P(5) \approx 0.0001 \) ### Histogram To draw the histogram, plot the values of \( r \) on the x-axis (1 to 5) and the corresponding probabilities \( P(r) \) on the y-axis for both cases. Each bar will represent the probability of getting \( r \) successes in 5 trials.
