Hi,
true-or-false questions... student knows the correct answer to six of them
P(scoring ≥ 90%) = P(getting at least 3 of the remaining 4 correct)
P(x≥3) = P(3) + P(4) = 4C3(.5)^3(.5)^1 + 4C4(.5)^4
Note: The probability of x successes in n trials is:
P = nCx*where p and q are the probabilities of success and failure respectively.
In this case p & q are = 1/2 or .5
nCx =
