Statistical Sampling and Probability · Data & Probability

The Binomial Distribution

Modeling scenarios with two possible outcomes and calculating probabilities of success over multiple trials.

Key Questions

  2. 2How does changing the probability of success affect the skewness of the distribution?
  3. 3In what ways can we use binomial models to test the likelihood of an observed event?
