Binomial Variables

Pedro drives the same route Monday through Friday. His route includes one traffic light. According to local data, there is a 55% probability that the light will be red when he arrives at the intersection on a random selected workday. Suppose we choose 10 of Pedro's workdays at random and let Y = the number of time that he is at the red light. Which of the following represents P(Y=8)?

What does the p stand for in the binomial probability formula?

• Number of trials

• Probability of Successes

• Probability of Failures

What does the (1-p) stand for in the binomial probability formula?

• Number of trials

• Number of Successes

• Probability of Successes

• Probability of Failures

A survey found that 25% of pet owners had their pets bathed professionally rather than do it themselves. If 18 pet owners are randomly selected, find the probability that exactly 5 people have their pets bathed professionally
