Consider a survey about employment that contains the question "Are you employed?" It is known that 65% of respondents will answer "yes." Eight survey responses have been collected.
We load the binom
object from scipy.stats
with the following code:
from scipy.stats import binom
Answer the following questions using pmf()
, cdf()
, and sf()
.
