- Answer the above question using the
dbinom()function. This function takes almost the same arguments asrbinom(). The second and third arguments aresizeandprob, but now the first argument isxinstead ofn. Usexto specify where you want to evaluate the binomial density. - Confirm your answer using the
rbinom()function by creating a simulation of 10,000 trials. Put this all on one line by wrapping themean()function around therbinom()function.
