Decide whether the experiment is a binomial experiment. If it is not, explain why. Surveying 600 prisoners to see how many crimes in which they were convicted. The random variable represents the number of crimes in which each prisoner was convicted.

It is not a binomial experiment.

Explanation:

A binomial experiment is an investigation with only two possible outcomes and a set number of independent trials. To be counted as a binomial experiment, the experiment must satisfy the following conditions;

1. Have a defined number of trials. In this case, 600 is the preset number of trials.

2. Must have only two outcomes. This condition is not satisfied as the response of the prisoners are random variables which would differ in range.

3. Each trial must be independent. This means that one trial does not affect the other.

Number two condition disqualifies the experiment as a binomial experiment.
