G Guest Oct 4, 2005 #1 Need assistance on how to plot this formulae in Excel. (N choose K)K^P(n-k)^(1-p)
G Guest Oct 4, 2005 #3 Use a compter (excel) to plot the binomial distribution as a function of k for n=50, and p=0.7
G Guest Oct 4, 2005 #4 By the way, you have the binomial distribution formula wrong, it's: (N choose K)(p^K)(1-p)^(n-k) But to answer your question, place this formula in A1 and drag down to row 50, then select the range A1:A50 and graph: =COMBIN(50,ROW())*(0.7^ROW())*(0.3^(50-ROW()))
