Let X be a random variable following a binomial distribution whose mean and variance are 200 and 160 respectively. What is the value of the number of trials n?
1000
The mean and variance for a binomial distribution are given by μ = np and σ² = np(1 - p). Using the given values and solving for n, we find n = 1000.
