MATH120

In the discussion forum for this week, you will create a scenario that requires the use of a binomial distribution.

· For your post you will make up a problem that uses binomial distribution similar to the example below. Try to have 3 scenarios. You do not need to solve your own problem. 

· If you can, try a probability different from .5. In your problem, make sure that the probability stays the same for each trial!  

· Example:

· For this example, assume that a family has 8 children, and the probability that any one child is a boy is .51.

· a) Find the probability that the family has exactly 5 boys.

· b) Find the probability that the family has more than 5 boys.

· c) Find the probability that the family has at most 5 boys.
