Let be 1 if a success occurs and 0 otherwise. Let i.e., x is the count of the number of successes in n trials. If a random sample is taken from a population which contains only zeros and ones, the sample mean is an estimate of the actual proportion of ones in the population.

Question

Let   be 1 if a success occurs and 0 otherwise. Let   i.e., x is the count of the number of successes in n trials. If a random sample is taken from a population which contains only zeros and ones, the sample mean is an estimate of the actual proportion of ones in the population.
