Question 1
A sports coach is tracking free-throw performance. Each player attempts one free throw per training session and the outcome is recorded as either 'successful' or 'unsuccessful'. The coach knows that historically, each player has a 70% success rate on free throws. One player is selected randomly each session for 8 consecutive sessions and the number of successful free throws is recorded. State three conditions that make this scenario suitable for modelling using a binomial random variable.
