Binomial Distribution (Optional) · Example 1

A fair coin is flipped 15 times. Each flip is independent. What is the probability of getting more than 10 heads? Let X = the number of heads in 15 flips of the fair coin. X takes on the values 0, 1, 2, 3,..., 15. Since the coin is fair, p =.5 and q =.5. The number of trials n = 15. State the probability question mathematically.
