In a Binomial distribution, the probability of getting a success is \(\frac{3}{4}\) and the variance is \(\frac{3}{8}\) then the probability of no success is:

  1. A \(\frac{1}{4}\)
  2. B \(\frac{3}{4}\)
  3. C \(\frac{1}{16}\)
  4. D \(\frac{3}{16}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\frac{1}{16}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(q = 1 - p = 1 - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{1}{4}\) \(npq = \frac{3}{8} \Rightarrow n \cdot \frac{3}{4} \cdot \frac{1}{4} = \frac{3}{8} \Rightarrow n = 2\) \(P(X=0) = \binom{n}{0} p^0 q^n = q^n = \left(\frac{1}{4}\right)^2 = \frac{1}{16}\)
