AGENDA: DG 20 --- 10 minutes Finish Section 8.1 Begin Section 8.2
Advanced Placement Statistics Section 8.1 (Part II): Mean, Variance, and Standard Deviation for a Binomial Random Variable EQ: How do you calculate the mean, variance, and standard deviation for a binomial random variable?
Refer back to the Section 8.1 Ex Handout on the President’s Physical Fitness test to answer #1 - 3. Calculate the mean, variance and standard deviation, respectively, of this probability distribution.
NOTE: This is not a %, it is a count of adults!! 2. a. What are the values for the parameters? n= ______ p = _______ q= _____ 0.9 0.1 4 How does it compare to ? (4)(.1) = 0.4 b. Find np. (4)(.1)(.9) = 0.36 • Find npq.
FORMULAS TO KNOW: • For a binomial random variable, SEE FORMULA SHEET:
RECALL:NORMAL DISTRIBUTION .4 , .6 -1.4 -.8 -.2 .4 1.0 1.6 2.2 b. The Empirical Rule states approximately 95% of the x values lie within ____ standard deviations 2
1.6 -.8 This occurs from ___ to __ on your density curve. d. Since X cannot be negative, we would expect (in the long run), a large majority (95%) of the adults (out of groups of four) who pass the fitness test to be between _______ and _____. 0 1.6
Normal Approximation Binomial Distribution If: n is large enough implies • n and p satisfy np>10 and n(1 – p) >10
