==Description==
 +
*This function gives the probability value of the Binomial distribution.
 +
*A binomial experiment has the following characteristics:
 +
*1.The experiment involves repeated trials.
 +
*2.Each trial has only two possible outcomes - a success or a failure.
 +
*3.The probability that a particular outcome will occur on any given trial is constant.
 +
*4.All of the trials in the experiment are independent.
 +
*A binomial probability refers to the probability of getting EXACTLY r successes in a specific number of trials.
 +
*The number of trials refers to the number of attempts in a binomial experiment.
 +
*The number of trials is equal to the number of successes plus the number of failures.
 +
*When computing a binomial probability, it is necessary to calculate and multiply three separate factors:
 +
*1. the number of ways to select exactly r successes,
 +
*2. the probability of success (p) raised to the r power,
 +
*3.  the probability of failure (q) raised to the (n - r) power.
 +
*The formula for Binomial probability is:                 
 +
<math>\binom{n}{r}p^r.q^{n-r}</math> or <math>\binom{n}{r}p^r(1-p)^{n-r}</math>
 +
where n = number of trials,r = number of specific events you wish to obtain.
 +
p = probability that the event will occur, q = probability that the event will not occur.(q = 1 - p, the complement of the event)

#BINOMIALPROBABILTY(5,3,0.4)=0.23040000000000005

BINOMIALPROBABILTY(NumberOftrials,NumberOfSuccess,ProbabiltyOfSuccess)


  • or
where n = number of trials,r = number of specific events you wish to obtain.
p = probability that the event will occur, q = probability that the event will not occur.(q = 1 - p, the complement of the event)


Examples

  1. BINOMIALPROBABILTY(5,3,0.4)=0.23040000000000005
  2. BINOMIALPROBABILTY(10,4,0.25)=0.1459980010986328
  3. BINOMIALPROBABILTY(12,11,0.75)=0.12670540809631348
