Approximately 60% of students in our class take their video quiz after Friday's lecture and before it's due. Assume each student takes video quiz independently. Let X denote the number of math students who take their video quiz in this manner (after Friday's lecture and before it's due) in a class of 100 students. What type of distribution does X follow? Note that to earn full credit for this part, you need to specify the parameter values. Describe in words what a "success" is and what a "failure" is.

Question
Approximately 60% of students in our class take their video quiz after Friday's lecture and before it's
due. Assume each student takes video quiz independently. Let X denote the number of math
students who take their video quiz in this manner (after Friday's lecture and before it's due) in a class
of 100 students.
What type of distribution does X follow? Note that to earn full credit for this part, you need to
specify the parameter values.
Describe in words what a "success" is and what a "failure" is.

Expert Solution
Step 1

X=The number of math students who take their video quiz after Friday's lecture and before it's due

n=100p=0.6

 

In this case,

Success is defined as math student who take their video quiz after Friday's lecture and before it's due

Failure is defined as other (except math) student who take their video quiz after Friday's lecture and before it's due
