Free Throws Professional basketball player Draymond Green has a free-throw success
rate of 70%. Suppose Green takes as many free throws as he can in one minute. Why
would it be inappropriate to use the binomial model to find the probability that he
makes at least 5 shots in one minute? What condition or conditions for use of the
binomial model is or are not met?
On-Time Arrivals Alaska Airlines has an on-time arrival rate of 88%. Assume that in
one day, this airline has 1200 flights. Suppose we pick one day in December and find
the number of on-time Alaska Airline arrivals. Why would it be inappropriate to use
the binomial model to find the probability that at least 1100 of the 1200 flights arrive
on time? What condition or conditions for use of the binomial model is or are not met?
Identifying n, p, and x (Example 120) For each situation, identify the sample size n,
the probability of a success p, and the number of success x. When asked for the
probability, state the answer in the form b(n, p, x). There is no need to give the
