62% of all students at a college still need to take another math
class. If 4 students are randomly selected, find the probability
that
a. Exactly 2 of them need to take another math class.
b. At most 2 of them need to take another math class.
c. At least 2 of them need to take another math class.
d. Between 2 and 3 (including 2 and 3) of them need to take another
math class.
Round all answers to 4 decimal places.
Solution: Given that n = 4, p = 0.62
a. P(X = 2) = 0.3330
b. P(X <= 2) = 0.49
c. P(X >= 2) = 0.8431
d. P(2 <= X <= 3) = 0.6953
