For example, we have a box with five balls: 4 white balls and one black. Every time, we take one ball and then put it back. How do we determine the probability of taking a black ball two times of 10 trials?

The experiment, which has two outcomes, "success" (taking black ball) or "failure" (taking white one), is called Bernoulli trial. The experiment with a fixed number n of Bernoulli trials, each with probability p, which produces k success outcomes, is called a binomial experiment.
Probability of k successes in n Bernoulli trials is given as:
P_n(k)=C_n^k \cdot p^k \cdot q^{n-k},  \quad q=1-p where p - is a probability of each success event, C_n^k - Binomial coefficient or number of combinations k from n
The details are below the calculator.

Probability of taking black ball in k first trials of n total trials is given as:
P=p^k \cdot q^{n-k} it's a probability of only one possible combinations. According to combinatorics formulas the following k success combinations number is possible in n trials: C_{n}^k=\frac{n!}{k!(n-k)!} see Combinatorics – combinations, arrangements and permutations.

Number of success events k in n statistically independent binomial trials is a random value with the binomial distribution, see: Binomial distribution, probability density function, cumulative distribution function, mean and variance
