Hi
Binomial Distribution:  p(do not get enough sleep) = .9
Using TI or similarly an inexpensive calculator like a Casio fx-115 ES plus 
n = 28
... P(x = 26) = binompdf(28, .9, 26) = .2442
... P(x > 26) = 1-  P(x ≤ 26)= 1 - binomcdf(28, .9, 26) = 1-.7848 = .2152


Important You are  comfortable using Your Calculator.
Wish You the Best in your Studies.
