The Census Bureau�s Current Population Survey shows that 28% of individuals, ages 25 and older, have completed four years of college. For a sample of 15 individuals, ages 25 and older, answer the following questions:
-----
Binomial Problem with n = 15 and p(completed college) = 0.28
-------
a. What is the probability four will have completed four years of college?
P(x = 4) = 15C4*0.28^4*0.72^11 = binompdf(15,0.28,4) = 0.2262
---------------------------
b. What is the probability three or more will have completed four years of college?
P(3<= x <=15) = 1 - P(0<= x <=2) = 1 - binomcdf(15,0.28,2) = 0.8355
