For an experiment to qualify as a binomial experiment, it must have four properties: ( 1 ) there must be a fixed number of trials, ( 2 ) each trial must result in a `` success '' or a `` failure '' ( a binomial trial ), ( 3 ) all trials must have identical probabilities of success, ( 4 ) the trials must be independent of each other.
Below we use our earlier examples to describe and illustrate these four properties.
We also give, for each property, an example where the property is absent.
The language and notation introduced are standard throughout the chapter.
1.
There must be a fixed number n of repeated trials.
