Our Chapter Six project was basically a summary we have learned this chapter. We had to calculate a series of equations that were important in our chapter. Chapter Six was all about: random variables, discrete vs. continuous, probability distributions and the key components, mean & standard deviation, and what they tell us about a probability distribution, methods of calculating mean and standard deviation for a probability distribution, the expected value, binomial experiment and key components, n, p, q, and r and what they represent, methods for computing binomial probabilities, mean and lastly standard deviation for binomial distributions. All of these words are bolded in our project for easy accept to which one you would like to view. Part Two was a problem in our book from which we had to answer, our problem related to the power-ball chances of winning. The problem is #1, answering a, b, and c on page 260, and below is our trial answers from that problem.
