A motel has a policy of booking as many as 150 guests in a building that holds 140. Past studies that only 85% of booked guests show up for their room. Find the probability that if the motel books 150 guests, not enough seats will be available.
P(x = 141) = 150C141(0.85^141*0.15^9) = binompdf(150,0.85,141) = 0.0003562
