For a binomial distribution, which probability is not equal to the probability of 1 success in 5 trials where the probability of success is 0.4?
the probability of 4 failures in 5 trials where the probability of success is 0.6
the probability of 1 success in 5 trials where the probability of failure is 0.6
the probability of 4 failures in 5 trials where the probability of failure is 0.6
the probability of 4 failures in 5 trials where the probability of success is 0.4

Step 1
We are given x is number of successes = 1
n is number of trials = 5
and probability of success = 0.4
Therefore probability of failure = 1 0.4 = 0.6
number of failures = 5 1 = 4
Therefore the probability of 1 success in 5 trials where the probability of success is 0.4 that is P ( x = 1 ) is not equal to the Probability of 4 failures in 5 trials where the probability of success is 0.6
( because probability of failure would be 1 0.6 = 0.4 )
