- What we're going to do in this video is talk about a special class of random variables known as binomial variables. And as we will see as we build up our understanding of them, not only are they interesting in their own right, but there's a lot of very powerful probability and statistics that we can do based on our understanding of binomial variables.

Binomial Random Variable. A binomial random variable is a count of the number of successes in a binomial experiment. Rolling dice can be a binomial experiment under the right conditions. For a variable to be classified as a binomial random variable, the following conditions must all be true:

Suppose one wishes to calculate Pr(X ≤ 8) for a binomial random variable X. If Y has a distribution given by the normal approximation, then Pr(X ≤ 8) is approximated by Pr(Y ≤ 8.5). The addition of 0.5 is the continuity correction; the uncorrected normal approximation gives considerably less accurate results.

X is a binomial random variable with n = 4 and p = 0.4. As a review, let’s first find the probability distribution of X the long way: construct an interim table of all possible outcomes in S, the corresponding values of X, and probabilities. Then construct the probability distribution table for X.

binomial random variable: A type of discrete random variable used to count the number of occurrences of an event in a random sample in a binomial experiment. A binomial random variable can only be used to count whether a certain event occurs or does not occur, and cannot be used to measure partial states.

The most well-known and loved discrete random variable in statistics is the binomial. Binomial means two names and is associated with situations involving two outcomes; for example yes/no, or success/failure (hitting a red light or not, developing a side effect or not). A binomial variable has a binomial distribution. A random variable is binomial if […]

Probabilities for binomial random variables . The conditions for being a binomial variable lead to a somewhat complicated formula for finding the probability any specific value occurs (such as the probability you get 20 right when you guess as 20 True-False questions.) We'll use Minitab to find probabilities for binomial random variables.

The Binomial Random Variable The Binomial Formula The binomial distribution is a discrete probability distribution of the successes in a sequence of $\text{n}$ independent yes/no experiments.
