variance help

If X is a discrete random variable then variance of X denoted by V(X) is defined as V(X) = E [X - E(X)] 2 V(X) = E(X 2 ) - [E(X)] 2 ..

We have = n(n-1) p 2 (p+q) n - 2 + np = n 2 p 2 - np 2 + np = n 2 p 2 + np(1-p) = n 2 p 2 + npq Now V(x) = E(x 2 ) - [E(x)] 2 = n 2 p 2 + npq - n 2 p 2 = n..
