Experiments with repeated independent trials will be described by the binomial distribution if
A) each trial result influences the next.
B) each trial has exactly two outcomes whose probabilities do not change.
C) the trials are continuous.
D) the time between trials is constant.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Choices A, C, and D do not accurately describe conditions under which the binomial distribution applies.
