After watching Sal lead up to the finer points of probability in the previous videos, students get a chance to see him grapple with some truly complex problems. He shows viewers how to see these problems as "intuitive" by giving the answer first, and then demonstrating how he arrived there.
If your students watch only one video on probability, make it this one. Sal's expertise is evident in the way he integrates the concepts from the previous videos, such as discrete and continuous probability distributions, as well as the way he introduces binomial distribution. Students who struggle with the more nuanced parts of probability will walk away from this video with new understanding.
Using graphs and colorful annotations, Sal makes probability a thrill to behold in this video about binomial distribution. He takes students through additional practice so that they can "get the hang of the binomial distribution" before he begins to teach about normal distribution.
Moving from coins to basketball, Sal explores binomial probability distribution again in this review video. Students who are familiar with the ins and outs of basketball will be able to make a real-life connection to the concepts presented in the video.
Young scholars explore the concept of binomial distribution. In this binomial distribution lesson, students perform binomial distributions on a number of problems in this lecture lesson. Young scholars find the mean and variance of binomial distributions.
Students investigate some of the math skills an actuary would use. In this secondary mathematics lesson, students investigate Bernoulli trials and binomial distributions as they solve probability problems.
Learners review previous lessons on mean, variance, standard deviation, and expected value. They utlize formulas for these characteristics that are specifically designed for the binomial distribution. Students discuss the similarities and differences between the formulas for finding the mean, variance and standard deviation for any discrete probability function and for binomial distributions.
For this binomial distribution worksheet, students explore real-life situations and the probability of a given outcome. They use probability distribution to organize data and arrive at the predicted results. This one-page worksheet contains 3 multi-step problems. Statistics to compile data are given at cited websites.
In this binomial distribution worksheet, 9th graders solve and complete 5 different types of problems. First, they compute the probability of successes using the binomial formula. Then, students find the probability that out of a given number they determine the outcome.
Students review basic probability concepts and examine the binomial probablity distribution. Using the binomial distribution, they identify and explain the criteria that must be satisfied to use it. They practice solving problems with the formula and calculate the mean, variance and standard deviation.
