Which of the following is NOT an assumption of the binomial distribution（）
A. The trials are independent.
B. Random variable X is discrete.
C. The expected value is a whole number.
答案
参考答案：C
解析：
The expected value is n×p. A simple example shows us that the expected value does not have to be a whole number : n=5, p=0.5, n×p=2.5. All the other conditions are necessary for the binomial distribution.
