In a recent survey, 64% of the community favored building a police station in their neighborhood. If 14 citizens are chosen, find the probability that exactly 8 of them favor the building of the police station.
------------
Binomial Problem with n = 14 and p(favored) = 0.64
------
P(x = 8) = 14C8*(0.64)^8*(0.36)^6 = binompdf(14,0.64,8) = 0.1840
