Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{7}{64}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(n=6, p=\frac{1}{2}, q=\frac{1}{2}\) \(P(X=k) = C(n,k)p^kq^{n-k}\) \(P(X=5) = C(6,5)(\frac{1}{2})^5(\frac{1}{2})^1 = 6 \cdot \frac{1}{32} \cdot \frac{1}{2} = \frac{6}{64}\) \(P(X=6) = C(6,6)(\frac{1}{2})^6(\frac{1}{2})^0 = 1 \cdot \frac{1}{64} \cdot 1 = \frac{1}{64}\)…
