Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

A factory produces light bulbs, where each bulb has a 90% success rate of passing quality control. If you test 15 bulbs, discuss whether or not this scenario can be modeled as a binomial distribution and support your answer.

💡 Hint: Check if all four conditions are satisfied.

Challenge 2 Hard

A student rolls a fair die three times, counting the number of times a 6 appears. Evaluate if this can be classified under binomial distribution criteria. What if, however, the die is not fair?

💡 Hint: Rethink the effects of probability consistency on classifications.
