Answer:

Yes.

This probability experiment represents a binomial experiment.

Explanation:

A binomial probability experiment is the discrete probability distribution of the number of successes in a sequence of n independent experiments. It has only two outcomes - either yes or no.

For this case it is a binomial probability experiment because the only outcomes available are: she either misses the free kick or gets it.
