The correct Answer is:
To find the binomial distribution for the given conditions, we will use the formulas for mean and variance of a binomial distribution. The mean (μ) and variance (σ²) of a binomial distribution are given by: - Mean: \( \mu = np \) - Variance: \( \sigma^2 = npq \) Where: - \( n \) = number of trials - \( p \) = probability of success - \( q \) = probability of failure (where \( q = 1 - p \)) ### (i) Mean is 4 and Variance is 3 1. **Set up the equations:** - From the mean: \( np = 4 \) (1) - From the variance: \( npq = 3 \) (2) 2. **Substituting \( q \):** - Since \( q = 1 - p \), we can rewrite equation (2): \[ np(1 - p) = 3 \] 3. **Substituting \( np \) from equation (1) into equation (2):** - Substitute \( np = 4 \) into \( np(1 - p) = 3 \): \[ 4(1 - p) = 3 \] 4. **Solving for \( p \):** \[ 4 - 4p = 3 \\ 4p = 1 \\ p = \frac{1}{4} \] 5. **Finding \( q \):** \[ q = 1 - p = 1 - \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{4} \] 6. **Finding \( n \):** - Substitute \( p \) back into equation (1): \[ n \cdot \frac{1}{4} = 4 \\ n = 4 \cdot 4 = 16 \] 7. **Conclusion for (i):** - The binomial distribution is: \[ B(16, \frac{1}{4}) \] ### (ii) Mean is 9 and Variance is 6 1. **Set up the equations:** - From the mean: \( np = 9 \) (1) - From the variance: \( npq = 6 \) (2) 2. **Substituting \( q \):** - Rewrite equation (2): \[ np(1 - p) = 6 \] 3. **Substituting \( np \) from equation (1) into equation (2):** - Substitute \( np = 9 \): \[ 9(1 - p) = 6 \] 4. **Solving for \( p \):** \[ 9 - 9p = 6 \\ 9p = 3 \\ p = \frac{1}{3} \] 5. **Finding \( q \):** \[ q = 1 - p = 1 - \frac{1}{3} = \frac{2}{3} \] 6. **Finding \( n \):** - Substitute \( p \) back into equation (1): \[ n \cdot \frac{1}{3} = 9 \\ n = 9 \cdot 3 = 27 \] 7. **Conclusion for (ii):** - The binomial distribution is: \[ B(27, \frac{1}{3}) \] ### Summary of Results: - For (i): \( B(16, \frac{1}{4}) \) - For (ii): \( B(27, \frac{1}{3}) \)
