A test consists of 10 true-or-false questions. An answer is randomly chosen for each question.
----
Binomial Problem with n = 10 and p = 1/2
----------------------------------------------
7. (1 point) What is the probability of answering exactly 4 questions correctly? Answer in fraction.
---
P(x = 4) = 10C4*(1/2)^4*(1/2)^6 = 210/1024
--------------------------------------------------
8. (1 point) What is the probability of answering at least 2 questions correctly? Answer in fraction.
----
P(x>= 2) = 1- P(0<= x <=1)
= 1 - [P(x=0) + P(x=1)]
---
= 1- [10C0(1/2)^10 + 10C1(1/2)^10]
---
= 1 -[(1+10)/1024]
---
= 1013/1024
