Lecture 5. Bernoulli Scheme
Lecture 5. Bernoulli Scheme
Let experiment 𝐺 repeat 𝑛 − 𝑡𝑖𝑚𝑒𝑠 under the same conditions and probability of the event
𝐴 doesn’t change from one experiment to another experiment. Such experiments are called
Bernoulli experiment or Bernoulli scheme. We interested in the following question:
A is called success (positive result). In Bernoulli scheme also interested in the following
questions:
𝑃𝑛 (𝑘 + 1) + ⋯ + 𝑃𝑛 (𝑛)
𝑃𝑛 (𝑘) + ⋯ + 𝑃𝑛 (𝑛)
𝑃𝑛 (0) + ⋯ + 𝑃𝑛 (𝑘)
5) What is the probability that the number of success between 𝑘1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑘2 inclusive
themselves?
𝑘2
Example1: Let one symmetrical coin be tossed 5 times. Find the probability that tail appear 3
times.
Solution: It is clear that tossing of coin are independent trails and in this case tail is the success.
By the condition probability of the success is
1 1
𝑝= 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑞 = 1 − 𝑝 =
2 2
Hence,
1 3 1 2 5
𝑃5 (3) = 𝐶53 ∙( ) ∙( ) =
2 2 16
Example2: Find all probabilities 𝑃5 (0) … 𝑃5 (5) and after then draw the graph and create the
table.
Solution: It is clear that tossing of coin are independent trails and in this case tail is the success.
By the condition probability of the success is
1 1
𝑝= 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑞 = 1 − 𝑝 =
2 2
Hence,
1 0 1 5 1
𝑃5 (0) = 𝐶50 ∙ ( ) ∙ ( ) =

1 1 1 4 5
𝑃5 (1) = 𝐶51 ∙ ( ) ∙ ( ) =

1 2 1 3 5
𝑃5 (2) = 𝐶52 ∙ ( ) ∙ ( ) =

1 3 1 2 5
𝑃5 (3) = 𝐶53 ∙ ( ) ∙ ( ) =

𝑃5 (4) = 𝐶54 ∙ ( ) ∙ ( ) =

𝑃5 (5) = 𝐶55 ∙ ( ) ∙ ( ) =

Now let’s draw a graph.

Limit theorems for the Bernoulli scheme
we see that for the large 𝑛, i.e., for the large values of the independent Bernoulli trails this
formula is not useful. Therefore we’ll introduce the asymptotic formulas for 𝑃𝑛 (𝑘). We’ll
consider 2 cases:
1
𝑃𝑛 (𝑘)~ ∙ 𝜑(𝑥)
√𝑛𝑝𝑞
𝑥2
1 𝑘−𝑛𝑝
where 𝜑(𝑥) = 𝑒 − 2 and 𝑥 = . Function 𝜑(𝑥) is called Gauss function and there are
√2𝜋 √𝑛𝑝𝑞
tables of the function 𝑥.
where
𝑥
𝛷(𝑥) = ∫ 𝜑(𝑡)𝑑𝑡
0
is Laplace function. There are tables of function 𝛷(𝑥) in probability books and
𝑘𝑖 − 𝑛𝑝
𝑥𝑖 = , 𝑖 = 1,2, …
√𝑛𝑝𝑞
Note that Moivre-Laplace local and integral theorems give us better results in case 𝑛𝑝𝑞 > 10.
If 𝑝 is small number these theorems don’t give good approximations.

Proof.

𝑃𝑛 (𝑘) = 𝐶𝑛𝑘 ∙ 𝑝𝑘 ∙ 𝑞 𝑛−𝑘 = ∙ 𝑘 (𝑝𝑛)𝑘 ∙ (1 − 𝑝)𝑛 (1 − 𝑝)−𝑘 =

Note that 𝜋𝑘 = 𝑒 −𝜆 , 𝑘 = 0,1,2, … creates the probability distribution. This distribution is

called Poisson distribution. It is not difficult to see that

Note that from the Poisson theorem we’ll obtain approximate formula for the probability

Let in Bernoulli scheme 𝜇 = 𝜇(𝑛) be the number of success and p be probability of success in
each trail.
