+**The number of successes in n independent Bernoulli trials has a binomial distribution.**
+n independent Bernoulli trials
+  * There are n independent trials
+  * Each trial can result in one of two possible outcomes, labelled success and failure.
+    * success can be a bad thing -- tire blow-up.
+  * P(success) = p,
+  * P(failure) = 1-p
+\begin{eqnarray*}
+P(X=x) = _{n}C_{x} \cdot p^{x} \cdot (1-p)^{n-x}, \;\; \text{for} \;\; x = 0, 1, 2, . . ., n. \\
