Kobe Bryant makes 80% of his free throws in his good season. What is the probability that he will make at least 6 of his next 8 free-throw attempts? Use the probability table given to solve the problem.
--------------------
Binomial with n = 8 and p(make free throw) = 0.8
-------
P(6<= x <=8) = 1 - binomcdf(8,0.8,5) = 0.7969
