Complete question is;

Determine whether the given procedure results in a binomial distribution. If it is not​ binomial, identify the requirements that are not satisfied.Randomly selecting 50 adults and asking if they like rap music on a scale of 1 - 10.

Choose the correct answer below.

A.​ No, because the probability of success does not remain the same in all trials.

B. Yes, because all 4 requirements are satisfied.

C. ​No, because there are more than two possible outcomes and the trials are not independent.

D. No, because there are more than two possible outcomes.

Answer:

Option D: No, because there are more than two possible outcomes.

Explanation:

A binomial distribution is simply defined as the probability of having an outcome in an experiment or survey that is either a success or a failure and having it repeated multiple times. Therefore, we can say that binomial distribution is a type of distribution that has only two possible outcomes.

Now in the question, 50 adults are selected randomly and asked if they like rap music on a scale of 1 - 10. It means there is a possibility of having more than two outcomes. Therefore, it means it is not binomial.
