The following probability distribution represents the probability of a randomly selected person exercising for x number of days per week.
Calculate the probability a person does not exercise at all.
P(number = 0) = 0.1

What is the probability that a randomly selected individual exercised at least three times?
P(3 <= x <=7) = 1-P(0<= x <=2)
= 1-[0.1 + 0.13 + 0.27]
= 1-0.41
= 0.59
