Bernoulli Trials
• The basis for the probability models we will examine in this
chapter is the Bernoulli trial.
• We have Bernoulli trials if:
– there are two possible outcomes
(success and failure).
– the probability of success, p, is
constant.
– the trials are independent.
• Examples of Bernoulli Trials
– Flipping a coin
– Looking for defective products
– Shooting free throws

The Binomial Distribution
![Page 5: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
The Binomial Model
• A Binomial model tells us the probability for a
random variable that counts the number of
successes in a fixed number of Bernoulli trials.
• Two parameters define the
Binomial model: n, the number
of trials; and, p, the probability
of success. We denote this
Binom(n, p).
![Page 6: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Independence
• One of the important requirements for Bernoulli trials is
that the trials be independent.
• When we don’t have an infinite population, the trials are
not independent. But, there is a rule that allows
us to pretend we have independent trials:
– The 10% condition: Bernoulli trials
must be independent. If that
assumption is violated, it is still
okay to proceed as long as the
sample is smaller than 10% of
the population.

Binomial Setting
• Conditions required for a binomial distribution
1. Each observation falls into one of just two categories,
“success” or “failure” (only two possible outcomes).
2. There are a fixed number n of observations.
3. The n observations are all
independent.
4. The probability of success,
called p, is the same for each
observation.

Definition:
• Binomial Random Variable – The random
variable X = number of successes produced in a
binomial setting.
– Examples:
• The number of doubles in 4 rolls of a pair
of dice (on each roll you either get
doubles or you don’t).
• The number of patients with type A
blood in a random sample of 10
patients (either each person has
type A blood or they don’t).

Definition:
• Binomial Distribution (model)– A class of
discrete random variable distribution, where the
count X = the number of successes, in the
binomial setting with parameters n and p.
– n is the number of observations
– p is the probability of a success
on any one observation.

Example• Blood type is inherited. If both parents carry genes
for the O and A blood types, each child has probability 0.25 of getting two O genes and so of having blood type O. Different children inherit independently of each other.
The number of O blood types
among 5 children of these
parents is the count X off
successes in 5 independent
observations.
• How would you describe this
with “B” notation?
• X=B(5,.25)

Example
• Deal 10 cards from a shuffled deck and count the
number X of red cards. These 10 observations,
and each gives either a red or a black card. A
“success” is a red card.
• How would you describe this
using “B” notation?
• This is not a Binomial distribution
because once you pull one card
out, the probabilities change.

Solution:
a) We wish to find P(X = 8), the probability of exactly eight success.

Solution:
b) In this case, we are interested in the probability of 8 or more seeds germinating, P(X ≥ 8).
P(X ≥ 8) = P(X = 8) + P(X = 9) + P(X = 10)
P(X ≥ 8) = .233 + .121 + .028
P(X ≥ 8) = .382

The Normal Model to the Rescue!
• When dealing with a large number of trials in a
Binomial situation, making direct calculations of
the probabilities becomes tedious (or outright
impossible).
• Fortunately, the Normal model
comes to the rescue…
![Page 30: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
The Normal Model to the Rescue!
• As long as the Success/Failure Condition holds,
we can use the Normal model to approximate
Binomial probabilities.
– Success/failure condition: A Binomial model
is approximately Normal if we expect
at least 10 successes and
10 failures:
np ≥ 10 and nq ≥ 10
![Page 31: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Continuous Random Variables
• When we use the Normal model to approximate
the Binomial model, we are using a continuous
random variable to approximate a discrete
random variable.
• So, when we use the Normal
model, we no longer calculate
the probability that the random
variable equals a particular
value, but only that it lies
between two values.
![Page 32: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Normal Approximation of the
Binomial Distribution
• Before the technology became available, this was the
preferred technique for calculation of binomial probabilities
when n was large or when there were a great number of
cases or successes to consider.
• This approximation method works best for binomial
situations when n is large and when the value
of p is not close to either 0 or 1.
• In this approximation, we use the
mean and standard deviation of the
binomial distribution as the mean
and standard deviation needed for
calculations using the normal distribution.
![Page 33: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Normal Approximation for Binomial Distribution
• Given a count X has the binomial distribution with
n trials and success probability p.
• When n is large, the distribution of X is approximately normal, N(np, √np(1-p)).
• When is the approximation valid?
– np ≥ 10 and n(1-p) ≥ 10
– The accuracy of the normal
distribution improves as the sample
size n increases. It is most
accurate for any fixed n when p is
close to ½ and least accurate when p is near 0 or 1.

The Geometric Model
• A single Bernoulli trial is usually not all that interesting.
• A Geometric probability model tells us the probability for a
random variable that counts the number of Bernoulli trials
until the first success.
• Geometric models are completely
specified by one parameter, p, the
probability of success, and are
denoted Geom(p).

Geometric Distributions
• Definition
– A special case of a binomial random variable where the
random variable X is defined as the number of trials
needed to obtain the first success.
![Page 49: AP Statistics Chapter 8 - Charlotte County Public Schools · 2018. 8. 2. · • pdf –Given a discrete random variable X, the probability distribution function (pdf) assigns a probability](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022061002/60b10ab1dba6c638232513fb/html5/thumbnails/49.jpg)
Geometric Setting (Conditions)
1. Each observation falls into one of just two
categories, success (p) or failure (1-p).
2. The probability of a success (p) is the same for
each observation.
3. The observations are all
independent.
4. The variable of interest is the
number of trials required to
obtain the first success.

Calculating Geometric
Probabilities
• The probability that the first success occurs on the
nth trial is
• P(X=n) = (1-p)n-1 p
• Example:
– If p = .25, find P(X=3)?
– P(X=3) means “failure on 1st trial
(X=1) and failure on 2nd trial (X=2)
and success on 3rd trial (X=3). Each
trial is independent so,
P(X=3) = (1-p)(1-p)(p) = (1-p)2(p).
– Therefore, P(X=3) = (.75)2(.25) = .1406

Geometric Probability Distribution
• Geometric random variable never ends.
• The probabilities are the terms of a geometric
sequence, arn-1 (hence the name). The a is
probability of success (p), r is the
probability of failure (1-p), and n
is the value of X.
• X 1 2 3 … n
P(X) p (1-p)p (1-p)2p (1-p)n-1p
• Geometric probability
distributions are skewed right.

Geometric Probability Distribution
• The sum of all the probabilities is still equal to
one, even though geometric probability
distribution is infinite.
• For geometric series S∞ = a/(1-r),
where a = p and r = (1-p),
therefore,
∑P(Xi) = p/(1-(1-p)) = p/p =1.

What Can Go Wrong?
• Be sure you have Bernoulli trials.– You need two outcomes per trial, a constant probability
of success, and independence.
– Remember that the 10% Condition provides a reasonable substitute for independence.
• Don’t confuse Geometric and Binomial models.
• Don’t use the Normal approximation with small n.– You need at least 10 successes
and 10 failures to use the Normal approximation.
