(4 choose 1) (0.5)^1 ( 0.5)^3 =
4 * 0.5 * 0.5^3 =
4 ( 0.5^4) =
4/16 = 1/4 = 0.25 = 25%

asked 07/26/19Assume that a procedure yields a binomial distribution with
nequals=4
trials and a probability of success of
pequals=0.50.
Use a binomial probability table to find the probability that the number of successes x is exactly
1.

Are you having trouble figuring out how to put this into the formula?
p = 0.50
n = 4
x = 1
q = 1 - p = 0.50
P(X = 1) = 4! / (4-1)!1! * 41 * (0.5)4-1
