Create a Binomial Probability Distribution by following the steps below.
1. Label column A as x
2. Label Column B as P(x)
3. In Column A, list the numbers 0 to 12. What do these numbers represent in our situation?
4. Click on cell B2. Click on fx. Choose STATISTICAL then BINOM.DIST.
5. In the dialog box:
Number_s is the number of successes. Click on cell A2
Trials refers to the total number of trials, in our case 12 donors so type in 12.
Probability_s is the probability of success, in our case 40% or .4 since that is the probability of Type A blood.
Cumulative: FALSE or 0 calculates the probability of EXACTLY x successes. TRUE or 1 calculates the probability of X OR FEWER successes. We are constructing the frequency distribution so we want the EXACT probability for each x. In symbols, we want P(x) for each x = 0, 1, 2, ...., 12. Type in FALSE or 0.
6. Use the fill handle to complete the table for all values of x. Format cells to give 3 decimal places.
7. Make a probability histogram (Insert -> Column Chart).
8. What is the shape of your histogram?
ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS: Each donor gives 1 unit of blood. What is the probability that exactly 5 units collected in this drive will be type A?
What is the probability that 5 or fewer units collected in this drive will be type A?
Our patient requires 5 units of of Type A blood for his upcoming surgery. What is the probability that this blood drive will get him what he needs?
(Hint: it's possible that more than 5 donors will have Type A blood, too.)

Styles First we will learn how to evaluate binomial distribution with the help of Excel. Let's flip a coin n times and count how many tails we are going to get. If n=0, then no coin is tossed and the only option is 0 tails. Therefore P(0)=1, the mean is 0 and the standard deviation is 0. We are going to do a simple table for n=0. First we will define columns. Click on cell A1 and type X for...
1.- A random variable follows a binomial distribution with a probability of success equal to 0.72. For a sample size of n=12, find the values below. a. the probability of exactly 5 successes b. the probability of 6 or more successes c. the probability of exactly 11 successes d. the expected value of the random variable a. The probability of exactly 5 successes is (Round to three decimal places as needed.) b. The probability of 6 or more successes is...
ial Expériments and Binomial Distributions A binomial experiment is a probability experiment with a number of repeated trials and the following properties: . Each trial has two outcomes. . The outcomes of each trial are independent of other trials. . The probability of each specific outcome is uniform across tr Example 1: We roll a standard 6-sided die three times. Each time we roll the die, we record whether the die landed on a number less than 5, or not....
