Identify the parameter n in the following binomial distribution scenario. A basketball player has a 0.479 probability of making a free throw and a 0.521 probability of missing. If the player shoots 17 free throws, we want to know the probability
that he makes more than 9 of them. (Consider made free throws as successes in the binomial distribution.)

Peter applied to an accounting firm and a consulting firm. he knows that 30% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the accounting firm, while only 20% of similarly qualified applicants receive job offers from the consulting firm. assume that receiving an offer from one firm is independent of receiving an offer from the other. what is the probability that both firms offer peter a job?
