A baseball player has a batting average of 0.26. What is the probability that he has exactly 6 hits in his next 7 at bats

0.0016

Step-by-step explanation:

Batting average, p = 0.26

n = 7

x = 6

With p = 0.26 as success rate

1-p is equal to failure rate which is = 0.74

We have to solve this by using the binomial distribution formula.

P(X= x)

= nCx * p^x * (1-p)^(n-x)

P(X = 6)

=7C6 × 0.26^6 ×(1-0.26)^(7-6)

= 7 × 0.0003089 × 0..74¹

= 0.0016

So probability that he has exactly 6 hits in his next 7 bats is equal to 0.0016.
