1. 0.17^5=0.000142 All did
2. 0.83^5=0.3939 None did
3. At least 1 is 1-P(none did)=0.6061
4. At least 1 did not take an online course is 1-P(All did)=1-0.000142=0.9999
Long way is
1 did not is .83*.17^4*5=0.003
2 did not is .83^2*.17^3*10 (the number of ways it can happen)=0.0339
3 did not is .83^3*.17^2*10=0.1653
4 did not is .83^4*.17*5=.4034
5 did not is .83^5=0.3939
