Assuming the binomial distribution is appropriate, if N = 10 and P = 0.30, the probability of getting at least 8 P events is _________.
A) 0.1493
B) 0.1211
C) 0.0015
D) 0.0014

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The probability of getting at least 8 successes (P events) in a binomial distribution where N = 10 and P = 0.30 is found by calculating the probabilities of getting exactly 8, 9, and 10 successes and summing them up. However, the correct calculation for this sum is very small, indicating a rare event. Among the provided options, 0.0015 is the correct value, which corresponds to a very low probability of achieving at least 8 successes out of 10 trials with a success probability of 0.30 per trial.
