A 6 sided number cube is rolled five times, X is the number of times an even number is rolled.

Which statement is true about this situation?

The variable X does not have a binomial distribution because there are more than two possible outcomes.

The variable X has a binomial distribution. P (success) = 0.2; number of trials = 5

The variable X has a binomial distribution. P (success) = 0.5; number of trials = 5

The variable X does not have a binomial distribution because P (success) is not constant.
