The equation for the variance of the binomial distribution is given by: A)p^x(1 - p)^n-x B)np C)np(1 - p)

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The formula for the variance of the binomial distribution is np(1-p), where n is the number of trials and p is the probability of success on each trial. This can be derived from the formula for the variance of a Bernoulli distribution (p(1-p)) by multiplying by the number of trials (n). Therefore, the correct choice is C.
