This is a binomial experiment and you'll use the binomial probability distribution because:
- There are two choices for each birth. Either you get a girl or you get a boy. So there are two outcomes to each trial. This is where the "bi" comes from in "binomial" (bi means 2).
- Each birth is independent of any other birth. The probability of getting a girl is the same for each trial. In this case, the probability is p = 1/2 = 0.5 = 50%
- There are fixed number of trials. In this case, there are 5 births so n = 5 is the number of trials.
Since all of those conditions above are met, this means we have a binomial experiment.
Some textbooks may split up item #2 into two parts, but I chose to place them together since they are similar ideas.
Let t be the number of tolls they crossed.
Amount they spent at each toll = $1.75.
Amount they spent at gas station = $28.
Let C be the total amount they spent on gas and tolls.
If they crossed 1 toll, then
C = 28 + 1.75(1).
If they crossed 3 tolls, then,
C = 28 + 1.75(3)
If they crossed t tolls, then,
C = 28 + 1.75t
Here, the terms are 28 and 1.75t and the factors are 1.75 and t.
