QuestionAnswer
Binomial probability distribution 2 qualifications: events are independent and each outcome is either success or failure
Describe p, q and p+q in binomial probability p(success)= p p(failure)=q p+q=1
Can p and q change in the events? No, they must remain the same in events
Describe x in binomial distribution x is the number of successes, n – x is number of failures in n trials
P(x) = nCx * p^x*q^(n-x)
When to use Binomialcdf() when we have n,p and x n number of trials, p probability of success, x number of successes
N = 100, p =.6 what is prob of exactly 50? Binompdf(100,.6,50)
N = 100, p =.6 what is prob of at most 50? Binomcdf(100,.6,50)
N=100,p=.6 what is prob of at least 50? 1- binomcdf(100,.6,49)
N=100,p=.6 what is prob of between 50 and 60? binomcdf(100,.6,60)-binomcdf(100,.6,49)
Use this chart x|p(x) find probability that x =6 just add all probabilities and subtract from 1
Use this chart x|p(x) to draw histogram just use x values as midpoints
Use this chart x|p(x) to find µ just plug into calculator
Use this chart x|p(x) to find σ just plug into calculator
Only in the case of binomial probability µ np
Variance σ^2= npq
Continuous prob distribution we use continuous random variables
Types of continuous prob distribution uniform prob distribution: standard normal and normal
When p(x=#) = when dealing with a rectangle p(x)=0
Find P(4.2<x<6.5) if we are between 2 and 18 6.5-4.2 mulitplied by 1/(18-2)
Find k such that P(x>k)= .1 0 to 12 (12-k)(1/12)= .1 because there is only 10%to the right of k
uniform probability distribution means you are working with a rectangle
Standard normal distribution graph is bell shaped
Standard normal distribution : mean is equal to mean= meadian = mode
µ=0 and σ=1 when graph is___________ and bell shaped and we are working with standard normal distributujtion
p(-1<z<1) = normalcdf(-1,1,0,1)
find k such that P(z<k) = 0.845 k= invNorm(.845,0,1)
with inverse we always work with the left value
Zα is α is the area of the right tail so
For normally distributed we can also use µ and σ other than 1 and 0 and simply input those two values in order followed by the other sides
What do you use for infinity? E99
The middle 90% from the rest (normally distributed) 1-.90= .1, .1/2 gives P5 k1= p5, k2= P95, x1= invNorm(.05,µ,σ)
z is related to standard normal distribution; mu= 0 omega= 1
x is related to normal distribution; mu and omega dont have to be 0,1

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.

To see how well you know the information, try the Quiz or Test activity.
