In which distribution successive trials are without replacement:____________________?

Correct answer: A. Hypergeometric distribution

  • A. Hypergeometric distribution
  • B. Binomial distribution
  • C. Poisson distribution
  • D. Geometric distribution

Explanation

The hypergeometric distribution models sampling without replacement, so the probability changes from draw to draw. Binomial trials require independent trials with a constant success probability, which normally comes from replacement or a very large population.
