Binomial Distribution Formula n! X n-X P(X) = p (1 -p) X ! (n - X)! P(X) = probability of X successes in n trials, with probability of success p on each trial X = number of ‘successes’ in sample, (X = 0, 1, 2, . . . , n) n = sample size (number of trials or observations) p = probability of “success” Statistics for Managers Using Microsoft Excel, 4 e © 2004 Prentice-Hall, Inc.
