For 5 it is 8C5*0.35^5*0.65^3, per the binomial formula, and that prob.=0.0808 \n" ); document.write( "for 6 it is 8C6*0.35^6*0.65^2=0.0217 \n" ); document.write( "for 7, 0.0033 \n" ); document.write( "for 8, 0.0002 \n" ); document.write( "so more than 5 are the last three or 0.0252 \n" ); document.write( "at most 5 is the complement or 0.9748 \n" ); document.write( " |
