Answer:

b. False

Explanation:

The binomial distribution model allows us to compute the probability of successes when the process is repeated a specific number of times.

The binomial distribution model is given as;


P(X) = (n_!)/(x! (n-x)!) P^x (1-P)^((n-x))

n is the number of times the process is repeated,

x is the the number of successes,

p is the occurrence of the outcome of interest,

Thus, the probability of elapsed time is best determined with Exponential distribution.

Thus, the correct option is "b"
