The probability that a student entering a university will graduate is 0.4. Find the probability that out of 3 students of the university none will graduate
उत्तर
Let X be the number of students that graduate from among 3 students.
Let p = probability that a student entering a university will graduate.
Here, n =3, p = 0.4 and q = 0.6
Hence, the distribution is given by
