60% of the voters favor Ms. Stein. If 4 voters are chosen at random, find the probability that none support Ms. Stein, and the probability that at least one supports Ms. Stein.
------
Binomial Problem with n = 4 and p(support) = 0.6 ; p(do not) = 0.4
----
P(at least one supports) = 1 - P(none support)
----
= 1 - 4C0(0.6)^0(0.4)^4
-----
= 1 - 0.4^4
-----
= 0.9744
