It is known that 30% of all customers of a major credit card pay their bills in full before any interest charges are incurred.
Suppose a simple random sample of 150 credit card holders is selected.
Binomial Problem with n = 150 and p(pay) = 0.30
========================================
What is the probability that between 40 and 50 customers pay their accounts balances in full before any interest charges are incurred?
P(40<= x <=50) = binomcdf(150,0.3,50)-binomcdf(150,0.3,39)
----
= 0.6730
