A person randomly selects answers to all 10 questions on a multiple-choice quiz. Each question has 1 correct answer and 3 incorrect answers.
Find the probability that at least 8 answers are correct.
------------------
P(correct) = 1/3
P(8<= x <=10) = 1 - P(0<= x <=7) = 1 - binomcdf(10,1/3,7) = 0.0034
